Sunam (Sangrur) : Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC) president Capt Amarinder Singh today alleged that Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was trying to get rid of his state party convener Sucha Singh Chhotepur. He alleged Kejriwal was making efforts to sideline Chhotepur, who was a known Punjabi face in AAP, just to pave way for his own entry in Punjab.
With regard to a video showing Chhotepur allegedly taking money, Amarinder said Chhotepur had a flawless record in his public life of 40 years. He alleged that it was Kejriwal’s nature to first use people and then start defaming them to get rid of them. He said AAP was already witnessing dissent in its rank and file.
Amarinder was here today to give answers to people’s questions at a ‘Halqe Vich Captain’ programme and to mobilise the Congress cadre for the Assembly elections.
He said the SAD-BJP alliance had no chance of winning the Assembly elections as people were fed up of their regime.
In reply to a question, Capt demanded from the Election Commission of India the deployment of central security forces in the state during the 2017 Assembly elections. He said this was necessary in view of the presence of about 60 criminal gangs in the state.
