Shiromani Akali Dal president and Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Badal on Sunday said that the Punjabis, dedicated to the cause of peace harmony and brotherhood will flock party’s Sadbhavna Rally.
Sukhbir, who was in Bathinda to take stock of the arrangements of SAD’s Sadbhavna Rally on Monday, said that the rally has created great enthusiasm amongst the people of area and the massive gathering will put across a firm message to anti-Punjab elements that Punjabis stand for development, promotion, peace harmony and brotherhood.
Besides Bathinda rally, Sadbhavna rallies are being held in Moga on November 28, at Gurdaspur on December 1, at Jalandhar on December 4 and December 15 at Khadoor Sahib “wherein all Punjabis would gather and reiterate their dedication towards maintaining harmony in State”.
Terming the past incidents in Punjab as unfortunate, Sukhbir said that there were some forces that were trying to bring back the horrific times similar to that of 1980s, but the wise Punjabis will defeat such forces and prove once again that Punjab is akin to peace and give preference to all around development and brotherhood.
Answering media queries, Sukhbir said that Congress and radical forces’ unholy alliance has now been exposed. “These two are trying to disturb the hard earned peace, but the people of Punjab are aware of their nefarious designs and will not let such forces succeed,” he said.
He added that the Congress party’s real face has been unveiled and hence he has appealed the President to take action against the Congress.
