Referring to the party's promises made to the people of Punjab in the run up to the 2022 assembly elections, the AAP chief said, "I am happy to say that Bhagwant Mann has fulfilled one more 'Kejriwal ki guarantee (Kejriwal's guarantee)'."

Punjab Health Minister Balbir Singh and AAP MP Raghav Chadha were also present at the event. The AAP chief said all the party's "guarantees" would be fulfilled and asked the people of Punjab to "have patience" as he targeted the previous dispensations for "destroying" the system.

The Delhi CM said that the AAP has already fulfilled its poll promise of 300 units of free electricity per month.

Heaping praise on the Mann regime, Kejriwal said 26,000 government jobs had been provided in just the past 10 months and called it a "big thing". "Jobs here are being provided on the basis of merit," he asserted.

The Mann dispensation is sending as many as 36 government school principals to Singapore for training. Punjab will also begin doorstep delivery of government services along the lines of Delhi, Kejriwal said, adding that this move would create around 6,000 jobs.
