Jalandhar : Former Chief Minister Rajinder Kaur Bhattal on Sunday said that the way Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) disrespected Darbar Sahib, they have proved that they were not even capable of even leading a Panchayat.
Bhattal said that soon the dream of AAP National executive Arvind Kejriwal and its disgruntled leaders of form the next state government would also be shattered by the people of Punjab.
The ex-CM also cornered the SAD-BJP government and said that after looting the state in all forms, the Badal clan was now on its last breath. “People of Punjab have made up their mind to uproot Akalis from the state”, she said.

The employees of state government departments had also been resorting to strikes due to the non-fulfillment of their demands”, the Jalandhar MP said.
Further, talking about the law and order problem, Santokh Chaudhary said that the state was being run by Akali gundas ‘Halqa Incharges’, who were controlling the police and civil administration.
