SAD chief Sukhbir Singh Badal said that while there are murders and drug addiction cases in Punjab, CM Bhagwant Mann is busy holding photo-ops.
Jalalabad: SAD chief Sukhbir Singh Badal on Monday slammed the AAP government over the alleged breakdown of law and order in Punjab since it came to power two months ago and said he was shocked at the manner in which the state was being "misgoverned".
"Punjab has witnessed 27 murders. As many as 24 farmers have committed suicide and 61 youths have lost their lives due to drug overdose. Instead of providing succour to the common man and ensuring the rule of law prevails... Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann is holding phony photo-ops in Chandigarh," the Shiromani Akali Dal chief alleged in a statement here.

"If this is the change the AAP had promised, then Punjabis are in for one of the worst phases in the history of the state," he said.
Badal also accused the Aam Aadmi Party of misleading the people of the state to secure their votes. He alleged the party had no intention of tackling the drug menace.
