Taking strong note of anti-people decisions of Badals led state government, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today alleged that smelling humiliating defeat in the upcoming assembly polls, Badals are indulged in loot in the state.Addressing a press conference here today, Delhi MLA and Co-Incharge of AAP’s affairs in Punjab, Jarnail Singh, newly appointed Secretary Gulshan Chhabra, Head of the NRI wing of the party Jagatr Singh Sanghera and member of the Punjab Dialogue team Chander Suta Dogra made scathing attacks on Badal Government.It seems that Badals have already smelled their defeat in the upcoming assembly polls, thus they have indulged in the loot of state ex-chequer by keeping the interests of state owned Transport at stack and giving more and more time & route to their own luxury buses.
“Now share of Badal family in the private public transport has increased to 60% and direct benefits were being extended to Badals’ owned buses by putting State owned buses into losses”, Jarnail Singh said.Member of the Punjab Dialogue, Chander Suta Dogra said that Akali leaders, especially who directly belong to Badal family are deliberately allowing massive power theft in their constituencies. As a result of this Industrialists and other power consumers were forced to cough high rate of power to compensate the theft of power by Akalis, she added. Head of the NRI Wing of AAP, Jagtar Singh Sanghera condemned the decision of State Government to stop the allowances of pensioners who settled abroad after their retirement. “The decision was an attempt to take revenge from NRIs, as majority of them extended their support to AAP”, Sanghera said.AAP leaders said once voted to power, AAP would reverse this decision to ensure all due benefits to pensioners.
