CHANDIGARH: Bharatiya Janata Party Punjab State President Sardar Kewal Singh Dhillon today launched a scathing attack on the Aam Aadmi Party government, alleging that the "remote-controlled" Bhagwant Mann government, operating under the directions of Arvind Kejriwal from Delhi, has pushed Punjab into a state of fear, lawlessness and financial bankruptcy.
Dhillon said that today neither the hardworking common man, nor women, nor traders feel safe in Punjab. Referring to the recent broad daylight robbery of a street vendor in Nabha, he said such incidents clearly reflect the complete collapse of law and order in the state. He added that cases of chain snatching, theft and robbery are becoming routine, while ordinary citizens are being deprived of their hard-earned money.
"The people of Punjab were promised 'Badlav' by Arvind Kejriwal. Instead, they have been handed fear, insecurity, rampant crime and financial bankruptcy. When a government remains more occupied with political theatrics than ensuring public safety, criminals naturally become emboldened," Dhillon remarked.
The BJP Punjab President questioned Arvind Kejriwal over the deteriorating security situation and asked, "Is this the 'Badlav' you promised? Is this your much-publicised governance model?"
Dhillon asserted that Punjab deserves a government that prioritises the safety and security of its citizens instead of spending public resources on advertisements and political propaganda. He said the people of Punjab no longer want excuses—they deserve accountability, decisive action and a secure environment in which they can live and work without fear.
He demanded that the Bhagwant Mann government take immediate and effective measures to restore law and order and ensure the safety of every citizen of Punjab.
