Shah Criticises Punjab's AAP Government

Yesterday, ahead of his 'Badlav Rally' in Moga, Punjab, Union Home Minister Amit Shah cornered Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann's government, referring to it as a "remote-controlled" government, while criticising it for the law and order and development in the state.

'Drowned in Corruption, Drugs, and Crime'

In a post on X, Amit Shah stated that the people of Punjab want a change from the AAP government, as he criticised the government over the handling of the state affairs. "Every person in Punjab wants change. Because the sacred land of Punjab, renowned for its youth, farmers, and hardworking people, has been drowned in corruption, drugs, and crime by the AAP-Da government. In the remotely controlled AAP-Da government, law and order and development are nowhere to be found in Punjab," Amit Shah said. "Today, I am eager to connect with the sisters and brothers of Punjab at the BJP 'Badlav Rally' in Moga," he added.
