The results will be out on April 26.Warning the people of Delhi against trusting the BJP with their votes, the Punjab Chief Minister said: "BJP was an ally of the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) in Punjab and together they had looted the small state, leaving it with a huge debt of Rs 182,000 crore."Amarinder said that the municipal polls victory would be another celebration for the Congress, which had to be restored to its pristine glory.He said he was happy to have fulfilled his promise to Congress President Sonia Gandhi to ensure that the party flag flies high in Punjab.
