Demanding ₹45,000 due from the Punjab AAP government as per the 3rd guarantee given by AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal, thousands of women led by State President Bharatiya Janata Party Mahila Morcha, Smt. Jai Inder Kaur was arrested while marching towards the Sheesh Mahal of Arvind Kejriwal in Chandigarh.
On 22 November 2021, during a rally in Moga, Arvind Kejriwal proudly announced his third guarantee, a monthly ₹1000 allowance for every woman in Punjab. Today, 45 months have passed, yet not a single rupee has reached the hands of the women who trusted him. ₹45,000 per woman remains unpaid, a glaring reminder of the false promises that AAP has built its politics on.
Jai Inder Kaur strongly condemned AAP for deceiving the very women who gave them a historic mandate. She said Arvind Kejriwal and Bhagwant Mann have betrayed the trust of Punjab’s women, turning their so-called “guarantees” into nothing but political fraud.
She added that no woman in Punjab feels safe today, with law and order collapsing under the AAP government. Every day, cases of snatching, assaults, and crimes surface across the state, exposing the grim reality of Punjab’s deteriorating security situation.
She was accompanied by senior Mahila Morcha leaders including Parampal Kaur, Menu Sethi, Renu Kashyap, Renu Thapar, Seema Kumari, Sarabjeet Bath, and Ekta Nagpal, along with the entire Punjab State and District BJP Mahila Morcha teams, all of whom were later detained by the Chandigarh Police during the protest.
She emphasized that the people of Punjab are wise and have fully understood the disastrous misrule of this government. She said the countdown has begun for AAP, and in the 2027 Vidhan Sabha elections, the women of Punjab will give a fitting reply to those who deceived them. “Just like Kejriwal is being rejected in Delhi, very soon this government will be shown the door in Punjab as well. The only hope for Punjab today is the Bharatiya Janata Party,” she said.
Jai Inder Kaur further stated that every Budget Session, AAP repeats the same statement, “₹1000 for women will be given soon.” But four years have passed, and the promise remains only on paper. She affirmed that the BJP Mahila Morcha will continue this fight till the very end, ensuring Punjab’s women receive their rightful dues, not just hollow guarantees.
Today’s large-scale protest clearly reflects Punjab’s rising anger and frustration with AAP’s deceitful governance. The BJP Mahila Morcha has vowed to intensify its movement until the government is held fully accountable for its betrayal of Punjab’s women.
