Congress Deputy leader in lok Sabha Capt Amarinder Singh on Wednesday cautioned people against getting trapped into to the “false promises” doled out by the Akalis during the election time.
At the same time, he also warned them against getting “carried away by the comedy shows” of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), saying that “governance is too serious a duty to be left out for clowns and comedians to perform”.
Capt Amarinder, addressing a public rally in Guru Har Sahai, appealed to the youth to beware of the “false dreams” shown by the AAP leaders. “If you really want to see what they are up to, just go to Delhi and see what they have done there by making people’s life miserable,” he said, adding that the people there were regretting over having voted them to power.
Referring to Punjab, the former Chief Minister warned people that the Akali Dal have already destroyed Punjab during the last 10 years and it cannot afford another five years of anarchy. “let somebody tell me what is the agenda of AAP and who is their leaderIJ” he asked, while pointing out that the party did not have a single leader worth its name who could claim to have some experience.
The veteran Congress leader lashed out at the Akali Dal and Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal for allegedly pushing Punjab into backwardness. “Their only contribution to the state is indiscriminate corruption aimed at enriching themselves and spreading the scourge of drug addiction and thus destroying an entire generation of youth,” Capt Amarinder said.
