Chandigarh, June 15, 2024: Chandigarh BJP today questioned the AAP and the Congress that why have they failed to fulfil their “revdi” promises made in the states ruled by the two political parties while they are crying foul that free water and parking resolutions have not been approved in Chandigarh.
In a press statement issued today,Chandigarh BJP president Jatinder Pal Malhotra said, “There is no LG in Punjab. Rather than doing petty politics over a false promise of free water in Chandigarh, the Aam Aadmi Party should first give Rs 1,000 to women of Punjab. It was their poll promise before the state legislative assembly elections in 2022. They have failed to fulfil freebies promise in Punjab and levelling false allegations against the UT Administrator.”
Also attacking the Congress over this issue, Malhotra further questioned it, “Similarly, in Himachal Pradesh, Congress Chief Minister Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu had promised to give Rs 1,500 to women before the state legislative assembly elections there. The Congress failed to implement this free promise till now. But, in Chandigarh, Congress MP Manish Tewari is asking for freebies.”
“Also, before the recently-concluded 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the Congress had promised to give Rs 8,500 per month to the eldest woman of each household in the country. Even though, people rejected Congress-led INDI bloc at the centre, but what stops it from fulfilling this promise in the states ruled by the party?” the BJP chief said further.
Malhotra said, “These two parties have no neta, neeti and niyat. They only know one thing that is to offer freebies to people in the greed of power and send the state to bankruptcy. While the BJP under Prime Minister Narendra Modi is doing politics of development, which is the reason, the public has blessed him with prime ministership for the third straight term.”
“Due to their freebies and misrule, the Punjab government is estimated to close the financial year 2024-25 with an outstanding debt of whopping Rs 3.74 lakh crore. Do we want to see the same situation in Chandigarh,” he asked.
