Amritsar / Chandigarh, March 13
After the massive victory of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Punjab, AAP National Convener and Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab’s CM-elect Bhagwant Mann conducted a victory march in the ‘Guru ki Nagri’ Amritsar and thanked the people of Punjab for the historic victory of the Aam Aadmi Party. Thousands of people had arrived from every corner of Punjab to be part of march with Arvind Kejriwal and Bhagwant Man and welcomed both the leaders by showering flowers.
Addressing the people of Punjab, Arvind Kejriwal said, “Love you Punjab! you have done a wonder. Only Punjabis can bring such a revolution in the whole world. Today Punjab’s revolution is being discussed all over the world. The world knew that the people of Punjab are revolutionaries, you proved it again in these elections. All the big leaders, who thought themselves to be too powerful to lose, you broke everyone’s ego.”
Kejriwal said that after decades Punjab has got an honest Chief Minister. Bhagwant Mann is staunchly honest. AAP government will be honest government. If any of our MLA or minister will misuse the power, we will take an immediate action against him. On March 16th, not only Bhagwant Mann, but all the people of Punjab will become the Chief Minister in Khatkar Kalan. I request you all to come to Khatkar Kalan, the land of Shaheed-e-Azam Bhagat Singh, to grace the swearing-in ceremony and start building a new Punjab by participating in that historic ceremony.
Kejriwal said that the Aam Aadmi Party government will take Punjab on the path of progress. We will make Punjab ‘Rangla’. Every penny of public money will be spent on the people. We will fulfil all the guarantees we have promised to the people of Punjab. It may take some time, but no guarantee will be abandoned.
Addressing the people, the designated Chief Minister of Punjab, Bhagwant Mann said that the people of Punjab have created history. All the traditional parties got together to defeat the Aam Aadmi Party, but the revolutionary people of Punjab united against them and made the Aam Aadmi Party win with an overwhelming majority. Mann said that after 20 days of hunger strike and a long struggle, Arvind Kejriwal formed the Aam Aadmi Party. Contested elections in Delhi on donations given by the people and formed the government. The aim of the Aam Aadmi Party is to do politics for the betterment and upliftment of the common people by eliminating corruption and nepotism from the politics of the country.
Mann said that the Aam Aadmi Party government will solve the problems of the common people and ensure their safety. And for the same we have already withdrawn the security of 122 leaders because now hundreds of those police personnel will be deployed in the service of the public instead of politicians. 17 police vehicles were taken back from the leaders. We will get the police to do police work and create a safe environment for the common people.
Mann said that we have to fulfil the dreams of Babasaheb Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar and Shaheed-e-Azam S. Bhagat Singh. The ideology of Shaheed Bhagat Singh has to be carried forward. To pay homage to our great freedom fighters who laid down their lives for our country, instead of Raj Bhawan, we are organizing the swearing-in ceremony in the land of martyrs Khatkar Kalan, informed Mann.
