BADAL COUPLE RUNNING THEIR POLITICAL AGENDA IN CRISIS: CAPT

CHANDIGARH: Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh on Friday lashed out at Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) president Sukhbir Singh Badal and Union minister Harsimrat Badal, accusing them for “misleading the people of the state to promote their petty political agenda in the midst of the Covid crisis”.

In a statement, the CM said the concerted manner in which the Badal couple is running a campaign of lies has exposed their double standards.

Amarinder also flayed Sukhbir over his allegations of embezzlement in distribution of ration by the Congress in Punjab, and said the MLAS were supporting his government’s efforts to ensure that nobody goes hungry.

The chief minister said Sukhbir’s allegations that the foodgrains received by the state government had not been distributed among the people were totally incorrect.
