Chandigarh, April 5

CM Bhagwant Mann is in full election mode. On Friday, he held meetings with the AAP candidates and MLAs from Anandpur Sahib and Amritsar. AAP Punjab President took feedback from all the MLAs in these constituencies and discussed the election strategy based on that feedback.

In the first meeting, CM Mann met with the AAP candidate from Anandpur Sahib Malvinder Singh Kang, AAP leader Deepak Bali, Deputy Speaker Punjab VS Jai Krishan Singh (MLA Garhshankar), Santosh Kataria (MLA Balachaur), Cabinet Minister Harjot Singh Bains (MLA Anandpur Sahib), Dinesh Chadha (MLA Rupnagar),    Dr. Charanjit Singh (MLA Chamkaur Sahib), cabinet minister Anmol Gagan Maan (MLA Kharar) and Kulwant Singh (MLA S.A.S. Nagar).

Briefing the media after the meeting AAP Punjab chief spokesperson and Anandpur Sahib candidate Malvinder Singh Kang said that today, Punjab’s honourable Chief Minister Sardar Bhagwant Singh Mann held an important meeting regarding the upcoming elections for Sri Anandpur Sahib Lok Sabha constituency. He took feedback from all the leaders and said that the Aam Aadmi Party will win all the 13 seats in Punjab.

Kang further said that, under the leadership of CM Bhagwant Mann, many pro-Punjab and pro-people decisions had been taken in the last two years. 90% of households in Punjab are getting free electricity, the youth of Punjab is getting government jobs on the basis of merit without any bribe, the farmers are getting canal water for irrigation, there are free mohalla clinics for the poor and schools of eminence in Punjab where our children are getting world class education. He added that the Mann government of Punjab has ended the mafia rule, drug mafia, sand mafia and corruption.

Kang further said that CM Mann instructed us to take our positive agenda to the people, apprise people of all the decisions that our government had taken for the welfare of the common people and our state. Our positive agenda will get the support of the people in the holy land of Sri Anandpur Sahib Lok Sabha and the Aam Aadmi Party will win the Sri Anandpur Sahib Lok Sabha seat with a big margin under the leadership of Mann sahab.

He added that there are special instructions from the Chief Minister that the way the Aam Aadmi Party has taken decisions for the public interest in the last two years, the party will continue to do the same and will fulfill all our election guarantees. Kang said that we have already fulfilled most of our guarantees in Punjab so the people know that we deliver what we promise. The AAP leader said that all the issues of Anandpur Sahib, whether it is tourism or infrastructure in this area or about providing canal water to the fields, will reach the country’s Parliament.

Kang said that all the traditional parties have ruled the state as well as the country. They issue manifestos, first they call them election promises now they call them guarantees but everyone knows that only Arvind Kejriwal’s guarantees are fulfilled after elections. Shiromani Akali Dal, Bharatiya Janata Party or Congress, none of them have any credibility among the people of Punjab. The people of Punjab will completely reject the BJP’s politics of hatred here.

He said that all our ministers and MLAs have done very good work in 2 years. Keeping in mind the work done by the Mann government in 2 years, the people of Punjab will give not only Sri Anandpur Sahib seat but all 13 seats of Punjab to the Aam Aadmi Party. Our government is continuously working against mining and corruption. The Mann government has not made any compromise when it comes to our people and our state and neither will it ever do so in future.

In the second meeting, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann met with the AAP candidate for Amritsar Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal (cabinet minister and MLA Ajnala),
MLA Amritsar West (SC) Jasbir Singh Sandhu, MLA Amritsar Central Ajay Gupta, MLA Amritsar East Jeevan Jyot Kaur and MLA Amritsar South Inderbir Singh Nijjar to discuss the election strategy for the Amritsar Lok sabha seat.

Talking to the press after the meeting, AAP candidate for Amritsar, Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal said that earlier, Congress and Akali Dal used to win alternatively but now the times have changed. Now the Aam Aadmi Party has come to power in Punjab and we will defeat Congress, SAD and BJP badly from Amritsar in these LS polls too.

Dhaliwal said that the CM, while being in member parliament, raised the issue of opening the Amritsar border for trade many times. We also want our business to expand and our goods should be sold in all Asian countries. After winning, industry and trade will be my priority. Amritsar got an international university during the time of Dr. Manmohan Singh, which Badal took to Bathinda. It is very important to bring an international level university to Amritsar and we will also build an international level stadium in Amritsar.

Talking about his opponents Dhaliwal said that the BJP candidate Taranjit Singh Sandhu is just tarnishing the name of his family. Today Sandhu sahab is standing with the killers of our farmers. It has not even been 3 years. 740 farmers were martyred at the borders of Delhi.

He added that Mr Sandhu was the US ambassador for 10 years, he was the biggest ambassador and he had a lot of power. He has now come to contest elections for the BJP. First they brought Navjot Sidhu, then Arun Jaitley, then Hardeep Puri and now they have brought Sandhu. He said that they think that the people of Guru ki Nagri do not understand anything. These people bring a new candidate in every election and make new excuses. Neither Navjot Sidhu , Arun Jaitley and Hardeep Puri did anything nor Taranjit Singh Sandhu is going to do anything. Not only Amritsar but the whole of Punjab is standing against the BJP. He said that the people will only vote for the leaders who are among them 24×7.

He said that the party has overcome many crises and this time too we will emerge as the strongest front in Punjab and will win all the seats with huge margins. He concluded that Mann sahab also advised us to take our pro-people works to the people and talk to the people about their issues.
