New Delhi: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday accused BJP MPs of spreading "lies" by claiming that a video showing people allegedly using drugs and being referred to as "zombies" was from Punjab.
In a post on X, Kejriwal said, "Many BJP people spread this lie together yesterday. Did the order come from the PMO? Does the PMO spread lies in the country?"

The response from the AAP convenor comes after BJP MP Harbhajan Singh posted the video in question saying, "The evil eye has struck, my friend, on our Punjab... The governments have ruined Punjab and its Punjabi youth. It makes me want to cry seeing all this. Forgive my Punjab... Excuse Punjab. Where have they brought Punjab to? The Punjab that was once known for its rising fortunes, courage, and bravery--today, that same Punjab's youth is besieged by addictions. There's still time--save my Punjab. Save Punjab's youth."
The Punjab Police then fact-checked the BJP MP saying the shared video purpotedly originated from Rajasthan.
