"This zone in-charge is a part of Akali Dal that you left and then later joined the Congress party. Congress party gave you everything, then why are you backstabbing the party?" he asked.

"Always remember! Staying in Congress and supporting Akali Dal will ruin your political life and Punjabis will never forget this," he added.

He further went on to say, "Your (Manpreet Singh Badal) actions as the Finance Minister during the last four years have forced every sector of Punjab to protest against the Congress government. Only yesterday, thousands of Punjab employees in your constituency went against you."

"Even the Congress leaders and workers have started understanding your 75-25 game," he said, adding that "the party leaders and workers need to avoid this."
