The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Saturday opposed the move of the Congress Government in Punjab to add new guidelines to get the mobile phone promised by Capt Amarinder Singh before elections. The party termed the move of Government as ‘cheating the youngster’ as it did with the farmers of State on the issue of farm debt.
In a statement, the in-charge of youth wing and MLA Meet Hayer said the new clause of furnishing affidavit from youngsters who had applied for mobile phone is nothing but denying to fulfill the poll promise.
The AAP MLA said that Congress party before the vidhan sabha elections got the application farms filled and promised from youth but is shying away from providing them the same.
The Government had earlier ran away from fulfilling the promise of providing jobs to the youth and unemployed allowance in absence of job.
He said that the Government has failed on all fronts and promises made with the people are going to air.
Hayer said that the utmost priority of Government is to provide luxury facilities to the Ministers and advisers of the Government but nothing
to do with the common people of State.
He said the pensions of dalits, senior citizens and widdows are stalled by the Capt Government. The Congress party has formed the Government on fake promises and cheated the people of State.
The AAP leader said that the Government had earlier changed its stand on the issue of farm debt from waiving off full debt related to all banks to just 2 Lakh that too of farmers with land holding of 5 acres.
