Guruharsahai, January 19, 2017: Arvind Kejriwal, AAP Supremo and Chief Minister, Delhi Government during his whirlwind election campaign for Assembly elections on February 4, visited Ferozepur and moved to Guruharsahai to attend rally in support of Malkit Singh Thind, AAP candidate from Guruharsahai pitted against Rana Gurmit Singh Sodhi, Congress sitting MLA and Vardev Singh Nony Mann from SAD ticket.
When all parties in Punjab are desperately trying to win over Dalits – 32 per cent state population – Kejriwal announced to have a Dalit as Deputy Chief Minister in Punjab if AAP would cme to power.
Lashing out at Capt Amarinder Singh, Kejriwal said, before reaching to the voters of Punjab, Punjab Congress copying the manifesto with a promise to waive off the farmers’ loan, should first waive off in Himachal, Karnatka and other states ruled by Congress.
Both Congress and SAD have so far made false promises, said Kejriwal. He promised to implement Dr.Swaninathan’s report with waiving off farmers’ loans after coming to power within one or two years by adding 50 per cent profit in the cost while making payment of their produce.
Talking about the sacrilege incidents in Punjab, the accused in such incidents will be nabbed besides enactment of strict laws so that none could dare to repeat such unpleasant incidents.
Kejriwal did not spare Capt Amarinder Singh for depositing crores of rupees in Swiss Banks by him, his wife and son.
He did not hesitate to name Bikramjit Singh Majithia involved in the drug mafia who will be put behind the bars by April 15 on coming in power.
He also promised to create job opportunities for the drug addicts by keeping them in the de addiction centres for six in Agro Processing Plants besides increasing the pension amount of Rs.2500 for old persons, widows and disabled persons.
He pointed out that power supply is the cheapest in Delhi and costly in Punjab. He said, all the candidates fielded in 117 Assembly segments will win to our expectations. He made it clear that in case any our Minister or MLA indulge in corruption, I will assure that he is punished doubly.
Our candidates don’t have spare funds to contest the elections but above all, we have ‘truth, honest and will to serve’. Our next Deputy Chief Minister will be from Dalit community, added Kejriwal.
