“Party will break”: Congress takes jibe at Kejriwal’s meeting with Punjab MLAs
New Delhi [India], February 11 (ANI): Congress MP Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa on Tuesday commented on AAP national Convenor Arvind Kejriwal’s meeting with the party MLAs and said that calling a meeting shortly after the elections only showed that the party would break soon.
“The results were declared on February 8 and the movement has already started. Calling a meeting so soon shows that they will break soon. There will be mid-term polls in Punjab. When a party loses, there is a discussion within the state, other states are not called. They are worried that what happened in Delhi may be repeated in Punjab,” Singh told ANI.
He added that the condition of Punjab was not good, considering issues like gangsterism and terrorism. Further, he said that there was nothing more shameful than claiming that the water of Yamuna was poisonous.
“The condition of Punjab is not okay regarding gangsterism and terrorism. The CM of Punjab did not show courage against Khalistan. There cannot be anything more shameful than claiming that the water of Yamuna is poisoned. All of us are drinking the same water. If it were true, they should have filed an FIR against the Haryana government and sent samples. They also claim that Operation Lotus is going on. If someone offered them Rs 15 crore, then they should have filed an FIR against that person. Nothing like that happened. It is confirmed that there will be mid-term elections in Punjab, very soon,” he said.
Speaking about the meeting, he said that it should have happened in Punjab and only one person was required to attend the meeting.
“The meeting should have happened there (in Punjab). Only one person would have needed to go there. The chopper and the chartered planes of Punjab would have been used to take him (Arvind Kejriwal) there. People of Punjab would also have been able to see him,” he added.
The AAP Convenor met Punjab MLAs to discuss strategies for the party after their crushing defeat in the Delhi Assembly elections.
