Aam Aadmi Party on Thursday criticised the Congress Government for stooping to the lowest level of politics and making mockery of Vidhan Sabha by using it to settle personal scores with their political opponents.
At the same time, the party lashed out at the Shiromani Akali Dal for its “silence” on the the resolution against the leader of Opposition Sukhpal Khaira and Bains Brothers — Simarjit Bains and Balwinder Bains.
“The silence of Akali Dal on the issue of Vidhan sabha passing resolution against its own members that too for personal reasons and protecting corrupt Congress leaders shows that the pre-poll alliance between Captain and Badals is still going on,” said AAP state co-president and MlA Aman Arora, MlA Kultar Singh, MlA Nazar Singh Manshahia, MlA Prof Baljinder Kaur and MlA Rupinder Kaur Ruby, in a joint statement.
They said that the government had run away from discussing issues of the public importance in the Vidhan Sabha and in a bid to divert the focus of people, they stooped to the dirty politics.
“Capt Amarinder Singh Government is not taking action against Akali leaders who are involved in corrupt activities during Akali regime, and in return, Akalis are helping them in their misdeeds,” they alleged.
AAP legislators said that targeting political opponents is the lowest level of politics, but AAP will not bow down with the mischievous and dirty tricks of the government and Akali Dal.
“People of Punjab have full faith in the policies of AAP and the party will continue to fight for the rights of people,” they said.
