Chandigarh : Ridiculing Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s claims about his Aam Aadmi Party winning 107 out of 117 seats in the 2017 elections, Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Capt Amarinder Singh on Friday said that he (Kejriwal) was living in a fool’s paradise.
“Like the People’s Party of Punjab, the AAP will soon vanish into the thin air”, he remarked, while adding, “PPP leader Manpreet Badal still had integrity and credibility to his credit and he was the son of the soil and Kejriwal lacks in all these attributes.”
“I am surprised as why he did not claim 117 out of 117 because that could have suited and sounded much better for him”, Capt Amarinder remarked, while taunting Kejriwal’s “day dreaming”, saying, like a frog in the well he was miserably mistaken by presuming that Punjab was like Delhi and it may vote like Delhi.
The PCC president pointed out, since 2014 when the AAP won four parliamentary seats in Punjab, it had split vertically with two MPs already having revolted. Besides, the two bye-elections it contested, it forfeited the security deposit in both and after that it did not dare to contest any bye-election.
“If you have really started believing that you are going to sail on the political deadwood you have been importing from other parties, may God bless you as you are doomed and destined to drown”, the former Chief Minister told Kejriwal, adding, “no matter how much you try to polish it, deadwood will always remain deadwood only”.
