Punjab Revenue Minister Bikram Singh Majitha on Tuesday termed the state Congress cief Capt Amarinder Singh as a big dramatist who is playing gimmicks in the name of Kisan Yatra for the lust of power.
Majithia, while interacting with the media persons after inaugurating the 66 KV power grid established with Rs 4.5 crore at Sohian Kalan village, said that Congress has been wiped out in the whole country and is taking its last breaths.
After the Punjab Vidhan Sabha elections, Congress would completely evaporate from the political scene in the country, he said.
“Captain is trying to get political mileage with fake promises such as filling debt wave off forms. Farmers of Punjab are very well aware of anti-farmer policies of Congress and Capt Amarinder, who imposed electricity bills of tubewells on the farmers immediately after gaining power in 2002,” he said.
He said that Capt does not know the ground realities in Punjab in the case of paddy procurement. He “Capt tried to play politics by visiting grain markets but he had to return empty-handed when he found the farmers satisfied with procurement process and arrangements made by the Punjab Government,” he added.
