‘Capt Amarinder Singh, Badals want to spoil atmosphere in Punjab’

CHANDIGARH: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Punjab has alleged the Congress and the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) were trying to spoil the atmosphere of communal harmony in Punjab “at the behest of the Narendra Modi-led central government”.

AAP’s Aman Arora claimed the Congress and the Akali Dal had been rejected by the people of the state and barred from entering the village and cities. “Seeing the opposition of the people, both these parties want to create terror among the people at the time of elections by imposing the President’s rule in Punjab at the behest of PM Modi,” he alleged.

Condemning the “atrocities” on the farmers in Moga, the MLA claimed the attack on the farmers protesting peacefully by the “goons of the Akali Dal’s constituent Student Organisation of India (SOI)” was a well-planned conspiracy of Sukhbir Badal, which makes it clear that SAD wanted to disturb the peace and harmony of Punjab and get the President’s rule imposed in the state. He said the clash between BJP and the Congress workers in Ludhiana was also a part of this episode.
