Doda (Gidderbaha), Sept 21

Aam Aadmi Party’s “Punjab Jodo” rally at Doda village in Gidderbaha Assembly segment today got a good response from the public.

Its leaders — state convener Sucha Singh Chhotepur, Sangrur MP Bhagwant Mann, Faridkot MP Prof Sadhu Singh — only targeted the ruling Badals and did not utter a single word against sitting Gidderbaha MLA-cum-Indian Youth Congress (IYC) chief Amrinder Singh ‘Raja Warring’, much to the surprise of the audience.

The AAP leaders raised all issues such as drugs, corruption, illegal mining of sand and gravel, privatisation of transportation, favouritism, politicisation of police etc.

All leaders spoke openly against the Badals and the Congress but did not name Raja Warring anywhere in their long speeches.

Bhagwant Mann said, “We don’t want to turn Punjab into California, as Sukhbir claims in his speeches. We want that our Punjab remains Punjab where people can live happily without any harassment. People from all walks of life be it farmers, businessmen, youngsters facing unemployment are fed up with the state government. They will show the SAD-BJP government the exit door in 2017. The public has seen the real face of Badals who believe in filling their own pockets and in looting commoners. They will definitely vote for AAP.”
