Dr. Gandhi campaigning in Sanaur constituency of Patiala.
Patiala, April 03, 2019: Dr Dharamvira Gàndhi Member Parliament from Patiala in a statement said," Out of 66 years of electoral history of Patiala, after the promulgation of Indian Constitution, royals have represented the constituency five times and a total of 23 years."
"Why Indian National Congress keep courting royals after common people threw away the British yoke seven decades ago and won a Constitution for themselveselves. Do royals have special right over Patiala or a birth right to rule?" he asked.
He demanded," President of INC Rahul Gandhi must respond to the question while confirming the ticket of Smt. Parneet Kaur and tell the country whether he ascribes to Mahatma Gandhi's view that "before taking a decision contemplate the face of an aam aadmi, and consider whether the decision will benefit the common man."
I appeal to Sh. Rahul Gandhi look at the police rule, the corruption, a mafia Raj in all spheres of economic activity and now the face of the murdered Neha, the drug officer to decide won your decision will benefit.
On the question of new bullet proof car being provided to Preneet Kaur after she made request to the government, Dr.Gandhi mocked at the decision and asked "what will the common man gain after electing such individuals who live in royal palaces and drive bullet proof cars ?"
He further went on saying that the request by Chief Minister's own wife for a bullet proof car exemplifies the crumbling law and order situation in Punjab and questioned how a normal woman can feel safe if the royals feel unsafe ?
He called upon the people to use their vote and take a resolution to throw the royals away a second time as a verdict against the misdeeds and misrule of Captain Amarinder Singh Government.
