'Pack your bags and leave Punjab', Punjab CM to AAP
'Pack your bags and leave Punjab', Punjab CM to AAP Aam Aadmi Party had completely lost the script and was no longer relevant in the country’s political arena, said the Chief Minister, adding that the Shahkot poll had shown that the theatrics and antics of AAP’s Sukhpal Singh Khaira had failed to convince the people of the party’s seriousness. The Chief Minister advised AAP, whose candidate won a mere 1900 votes in the bypoll, to pack its bags and leave Punjab instead of continuing to shame itself with such shocking electoral defeats. Farm debt waiver for marginal and small farmers would be completed by November, and law and order, which had shown major improvement since his government took over, would be maintained at all costs, Captain Amarinder asserted. The employment generation process was also well on track, with over 1.6 lakh youth already given jobs in the past one year, he said, vowing to ensure the implementation of his `Ghar Ghar Rozgar’ promise in letter and in spirit. -PTC News
