AAP burns copies of Punjab Governor’s speech

Show comments

Chandigarh, March 1

The AAP took an aggressive stand on the first day of the Budget session. The party today took out a bicycle rally against the Congress government for “failing to fulfil its promises” and burned copies of the Governor’s Address, claiming that the Governor and the CM were lying to the people.

Protesting against Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh’s “false promises” made to the people, the rally led by Leader of Opposition Harpal Singh Cheema concluded at the Punjab Legislative Assembly. AAP MLAs claimed that the people had suffered for the last four years.

Cheema alleged that from drugs to farm loan-waiver and from post-matric scholarship to the Shagun scheme, Capt Amarinder had failed in fulfilling any of his promises. “As today is the start of the Budget session, we have started our protest against the CM and his government through this cycle rally and will not stop our protest till people’s aspirations and hopes are fulfilled,” he added. — TNS
