Chandigarh, April 22
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has congratulated MLA Amarinder Singh Raja Warring on assuming the office of Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee President and hoped that the Congress would play a constructive role as the Opposition in the state. Addressing a press conference at the party headquarters here on Friday, AAP chief spokesperson Malwinder Singh Kang said that opposition party has a major role to play in a democracy. Therefore, the Aam Aadmi Party government hopes that the Congress will play the role of a wise opposition for the overall development of the state. On this occasion party spokesperson Dr Sunny Singh Ahluwalia and Advocate Ravinder Singh were also present.
Malwinder Singh Kang further said that although Punjab government led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann was expecting the Congress to discharge its responsibilities diligently as the Opposition, but the feud between the Congress leaders was exposed during the coronation of Raja Warring. He said that today Congress has become a divided house, some leaders were with Leader of Opposition Partap Singh Bajwa and others were with former PPCC President Navjot Singh Sidhu. While Raja Warring was assuming office, Navjot Singh Sidhu was behaving like an outsider in front of the Congress office, alleging that the same corrupt leaders and mafias who were responsible for Congress’s defeat were sharing stage with Raja Warring.
Kang said that earlier Congress High Command replaced Maharaja with Raja (Channi), owner of crores property, but when that too failed, they introduced another Raja (Raja Warring). He also slammed Raja Warring’s 3D model and said that PPCC President is forgetting one D that stands for divided house of Congress and the people of Punjab have already rejected them badly.
