Sukhbir Singh Badal, President Shiromani Akali Dal and Deputy Chief Minister today said that Captain Amrinder Singh being a part time politician was an outsider for his Patiala assembly constituency too.  He said that people of Amritsar and Patiala constituency were well aware of this fact and thus they were determined to give humiliating defeat to both king and his queen with a margin of more than 1 lakh votes. Replying to media queries after addressing a rally in favour of SAD-BJP candidate from Patiala Mr. Deepinder Singh Dhillon, Badal said that the days of Royal Politics were over and now people vote for the party whose leaders were accessible to them. He said that it was no longer a secret for anyone that Captain Amrinder Singh has never spared a moment to visit any street or Mohalla of his assembly constituency to hear the grievances of his voters. Mr. Badal questioned that how the people of a Lok Sabha constituency could expect that Amrinder would raise their issues in the parliament as he seldom attended the Punjab Assembly sessions. He described Captain Amrinder Singh as a seasonal politician.

In reply to another query, Badal said that people of Patiala constituency have made their mind to vote for young and dynamic Mr.   Deepinder Singh Dhillon as Mrs. Parneet Kaur never responded effectively to the grievances being faced by them during last one decade. He said that Mrs. Parneet Kaur even failed to solve the problem of Ghaggar during decade long rule of her party led UPA government. “Mrs. Parneet Kaur being minister in the UPA government did nothing except touring the foreign countries. There are a number of problems that only centre government can solve but Mrs. Parneet Kaur never bothered to use her influence for the betterment of the area”, he added.

Describing NDA government as one solution for all problems being faced by Punjab, Mr. Badal said that Punjab government has requested Congress led UPA time and again to strengthen the vigilance on the drug smuggling through Indo-Pak border but it too no concrete steps in this direction. He said that Punjab Police has no access to the border so it could not create check the flow of drugs into state but it did its best to capture the drug peddlers. He promised that once NDA government elected into power at centre the Punjab border along with Pakistan would be put under strict surveillance to completely shut the inflow of drugs. He also promised that NDA government would solve the problem of Ghaggar within six months of taking charge.Badal further said that SAD-BJP was all set to register record victories on all the 13 seats. He said that Mr. Arun Kumar Jaitly and Deepinder Singh Dhillon would win their seats with a margin more than 1 lakh.

Earlier addressing the rally, Mr. Badal appealed the voters of the area to vote in favour of Mr. Deepinder Singh Dhillon to have say of the area in the NDA government. He said that SAD-BJP government has done its best using limited resources of state and promised that people of area would witness a sea change in the constituency by voting for this change. Prominent amongst others Mr. Surjit Singh Rakhra and Mr. Deepinder Singh Dhillon also addressed the rally.
