Strong wave in favour of Congress in Punjab: Amarinder

Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Captain Amarinder Singh on Tuesday said there was a distinct wave in favour of the Congress in Punjab, with both SAD and AAP having failed the people of the state as a result of their corrupt policies and anti-people agenda.

Talking to mediapersons at Pipli en route to New Delhi, Captain Amarinder said once the ticket allocation process is complete in all the major parties and the candidates take to electioneering in full force, the people’s mood in favour of the Congress would become even more palpable.

In response to a question, the PPCC president once again made it clear that there was no question of compromising on the SYL canal issue even if it meant losing out on former Haryana CM Bhupinder Singh Hooda's support in the Assembly election campaign in Punjab.

Replying to a media query about AAP eyeing Punjab after Delhi, Captain Amarinder dismissed Arvind Kejriwal's party as an outfit of corrupt and greedy individuals who were busy selling tickets, with several party leaders even caught in sex and drugs scandals. He added that AAP stands completely exposed in the wake of allegations of bribery, drugs and sex scandals against various AAP leaders by their own party members and workers.
