Former Deputy Chief Minister , Sukhbir Singh Badal, paying floral tributes to the martyrs at village Khatkar Kalan ( Nawanshahr)
Nawanshahr, March 23, 2017: The SAD Chief and former Deputy Chief Minister, Sukhbir Singh Badal has dared the Congress government to beat the development done by the SAD- BJP government during the last decade. Sukhbir was addressing the political conference organised at Khatkar Kalan, native village of Sardar Bhagat Singh to commemorate the martyrdom day today. " The unprecedented development, keeping the communal harmony intact, preservation and promotion of rich cultural, religious and patriotic heritage of Punjab done by the SAD govt. during the past 10 years is a big challenge for the Chief Minister, Captain Amarinder Singh", said Sukhbir adding that the people of the state had rejected AAP in the recently concluded assembly pols and would realise their folly of voting Congress in power when they feel the difference between development oriented agenda and false promises soon.
" The Congress has deceived the farmers on the issue of loan waiving. During election campaign, the Congress has got the forms for waiving loans filled from the farmers to make them believe that the Captain Amarinder Singh would waive their loan off after assuming power. But, now the CM has urged the Prime Minister for the loan waiver package", quipped Sukhbir while adding that the Congress government in Punjab had not done anything new on the issues like waiving off the loans of farmers and SYL issue.
" Let them take decisions during the coming six months on its major pre poll promises", he said adding that while the SAD would support the pro-people and pro-Punjab decisions and expose it back tracking from the pre-poll promises.
The SAD Chief while criticising the Congress for starting vendetta politics, exhorted party workers to thwart it unitedly. He asked the party leaders, MLAs and Halqa Incharges to keep in consistent touch with the workers to keep their morale high as well as to face the challenge unitedly.
