CHANDIGARH: Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has once again found himself surrounded by controversy. Punjab Bharatiya Janata Party's Working President Ashwani Sharma has demanded an explanation from the Chief Minister over reports that a government bungalow in Sector-2, allotted under his CM quota, is renovated as a new “Sheesh Mahal” for Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party convenor Arvind Kejriwal.
Sharma wrote in a tweet that the matter is no longer limited to Punjab alone but is echoing in Delhi as well.
After Aam Aadmi Party’s own Rajya Sabha member Swati Maliwal revealed this issue, Sharma directly targeted Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann over the matter.
On social media platform ‘X’ (formerly Twitter), Sharma wrote,
“Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann ji, is it true that the Sector-2 bungalow allotted to you under your CM quota has been renovated as a new ‘Sheesh Mahal’ for Arvind Kejriwal? The people of Punjab deserve to know the truth about this.”
Ashwani Sharma alleged that just as Kejriwal had built his “Sheesh Mahal” in Delhi by spending crores of rupees from public funds, a similar picture now seems to be emerging in Punjab. He said this is an attempt for personal luxury at the expense of public money, and Bhagwant Mann must clarify the matter.
