Ropar : The Congress is likely to release the list of its candidates for the state Assembly elections in the first week of next month. This was stated by Congress Legislature Party chief Charanjit Singh Channi.
Channi today began his second phase of “Jawani Sambhal Yatra” from Morinda, which will culminate on November 11 in Amritsar after covering 22 Assembly constituencies.
Channi criticised the state government over a protest by the family members of freedom fighters during the inauguration of Jang-e-Azadi memorial in Jalandhar yesterday. He said Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal should publicly apologise for it.
PPCC senior vice-president Lal Singh, while flagging off the yatra, claimed that the Congress would eradicate drug addiction, unemployment and corruption from the state. “The state youth have suffered the most in the last 10 years. Drugs have affected every household of Punjab owing to police-politico nexus under the SAD-BJP government,” he alleged.
Amrinder Singh Raja Warring, president, Indian Youth Congress, said the youth would bring a revolution in Punjab and strengthen the Congress to form the government in 2017.
