-Why Congressmen are afraid of vigilance inquiries if they are innocent, Kang questions Warring
-No corrupt person will be spared, Mann govt is working dedicatedly to bring reform in the system
Chandigarh, August 22: Lashing out at Congress for holding protest at Vigilance office today, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) said that corrupt and nefarious people cannot now evade the ongoing investigations under Bhagwant Mann government and advised Congress leaders to stand for the welfare of people rather than shielding its ‘venal’ leaders.
Addressing a press conference, party’s chief spokesperson Malvinder Singh Kang today rejected the frivolous allegations of vendetta politics leveled by Congress and questioned PPCC Amrinder Raja Warring that why all his leaders are afraid of Vigilance investigation. “If they are innocent and have nothing to hide then why are they running away from a fair probe? Face the equitable probe and prove their innocence in the Courts,” Kang said.
Giving the example of Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia, Kang said that Congress leaders should also face inquiry like him as he is innocent and not afraid of a fake case and truth will come out in the court soon.
He advised Congress leaders to hold protests against rising inflations, corruption and drug mafia but not to save the corrupt leaders. The Mann government is committed to eradicate corruption and all perpetrators of looting public money will be taken to task.
He said that leaders of the previous government were involved in various scams, corruption cases and that now an honest government led by CM Mann is ruling the state, nefarious leaders are petrified that they will be punished for their sins and looting Punjabis.
“If the Mann government examines the files of Food and Supply, or the transportation and mining department, the names of Congress leaders including Tripat Rajinder Singh Bajwa, Balbir Sidhu and other leaders are being cropped in it. The investigations in various scams that occurred in the previous government are underway and all will get punishment,” Kang said.
He said that an investigation in the Rs 150 crore scam in Agriculture is also going on. It is the responsibility of the AAP government to bring out the truth in front of people and give punishment to corrupt people.
He also accused former jails minister and Congress MLA Sukhjinder Randhawa of giving “VVIP treatment” inside the Ropar Central Jail to gangster Mukhtar Ansari during the previous Congress government after a fake FIR was registered against him in Mohali to bring him to Punjab from Uttar Pradesh.
Taking a dig at former Congress CM Charanjit Singh Channi, he said that ‘Challa Mud ke ni’ and has been ‘hiding’ in foreign after being involved in illegal mining during his tenure.
