Punjab will again vote SAD-BJP to power: Harsimrat Kaur

Bathinda: Union Minister Harsimrat Kaur Badal on Wednesday accused Congress and Aam Aadmi Party of playing "vote bank politics" and claimed that people of Punjab will reject them and vote the SAD-BJP alliance to power in the assembly polls next year.

"Both the parties play only vote bank politics and the welfare of people is of least concern for them," she alleged on the sidelines of a pragramme here.

"Unlike other governments, the SAD-BJP government not only has launched several welfare schemes, but has achieved high success in implementing them properly," she said.

The Union Minister alleged that merger of Manpreet Badal led People's Party of Punjab (PPP) has vindicated the fact that PPP was always the B-team of Congress and so is AAP now in Punjab.

"The two parties allied in Delhi against BJP government and the same is now being repeated in Punjab too," she said, claiming that, people of Punjab have always voted for development and this time too they will cast their precious vote to SAD-BJP government that has heralded in development in state."
