Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring today took a jibe at the Aam Aadmi Party’s “lame defence” of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, after the Akal Takht declared him “anti-Guru and anti-Sikh”. Reacting to the claims made by Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema today quoting some vague reports from some anonymous laboratories, Warring remarked, “AAP is trying to defend the indefensible and telling one lie after the other”.

The PCC president also wondered how the AAP had managed to procure a report from two different laboratories within 24 hours to give “clean chit” to the Chief Minister. “Even when you knew you were going to lie, you should have lied properly and waited for some time”, he taunted the AAP leaders, asking them who will believe them and their “clean chit” reports they got within 24 hours.

Asserting that the AAP was weak on defence, he said, the party was contradicting its own earlier stand. He pointed out, when Chief Minister Mann appeared before the Akal Takht a few months ago, he straightway rejected the videos saying these were artificially generated.

“But when it was established that the videos were genuine and not artificially generated, the AAP’s defence shifted to the person in the video that he was not Man”, he pointed out, while adding, it was the Chief Minister himself who had suggested to the Akal Takht Jathedar to get the videos forensically investigated wherever he wanted.

Warring also asked the AAP as to why it did not take any action for months together when these videos were being circulated in the public domain. “Why only now and so quick and so fast?” he asked, while remarking, today’s defence by the AAP has raised more questions than it had answered and reaffirmed public perception that the AAP was a party of serial liars.

He suggested that the Chief Minister should avoid such confrontation with the Akal Takht, the highest temporal authority of the Sikhs. “History may not be kind to you the way you are confronting Akal Takht”, he cautioned Mann.
