Chandigarh : PPCC president Partap Singh Bajwa today said it was strange that the Chief Minister's Office had “no record” of the Sangat Darshan programme.
In a press statement issued here, Bajwa alleged that the programme was a farce and a political gimmick to befool the common people. He said during the Congress rule, grants were distributed by panchayat secretaries or block development officers.
Bajwa alleged Badal was disbursing grants through Sangat Darshan, which was "an insult to the people of Punjab who are being made to beg". He said: "If a village needs Rs 10 lakh for some job, the CM will give Rs 2 lakh and promise to send the balance amount soon”.
