Sangrur : Aam Aadmi Party supremo Arvind Kejriwal launched a scathing attack on the Akali Dal in Sunam today. Kejriwal blamed the ruling SAD for the prevalent drug menace in the state. “Under the patronage of corrupt politicians, the drug trade is flourishing in the state. Even though the name of an Akali minister is being openly linked to the drug trade in the media, still no action has been taken against him. An honest politician would have never allowed the situation to deteriorate so much. There is a direct link between such politicians and the smugglers. If AAP comes to power, we will curb drug trade immediately. We reduced corruption drastically in New Delhi in 49 days.” he said.
