Harpal Cheema calls Capt Amarinder a “BJP Agent,” levels serious allegations
Babushahi Bureau
Chandigarh, December 1, 2025: Punjab Finance Minister Harpal Cheema launched a sharp attack on former Chief Minister and current BJP leader Captain Amarinder Singh, responding strongly to his remarks on the Akali-BJP alliance.
Cheema alleged that Captain Amarinder has a long history of switching political sides and claimed that he has repeatedly acted against Punjab’s religious freedoms.
The minister further accused Amarinder of maintaining secret ties with the Bharatiya Janata Party while he was still in the Congress, claiming he “worked as a BJP agent” during his tenure as Chief Minister. Cheema added that Punjab has only been ruled by two major parties in the past, and both have “caused more damage than development.”
He also criticised Amarinder for forming his own political party, saying it “failed miserably,” and asserted that Amarinder is once again trying different political strategies — none of which, he said, will succeed.
