Punjab Congress president Amrinder Singh Raja Warring on Wednesday warned the AAP Government against pushing Punjab economy towards bankruptcy, beyond redemption by ill-conceived populist freebies without making any proper financial arrangements for the same.
“Under the AAP government, Punjab has got the dubious distinction of having record debt to GSDP ratio at 53.3 percent, which is highest in the country,” said Warring.
Instead of taking any corrective and remedial measures, AAP Government was resorting to “wanton populism” that would further bleed the economy; and eventually, lead to its collapse and complete financial bankruptcy, he added.
