BJP Betraying Punjab by Withholding Rural Development Fund and Flood Relief: Prabhjot Kaur

Chandigarh, March 29**
Leaders and workers of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), under the leadership of Kharar MLA Anmol Gagan Maan, Punjab Youth Wing Working President Parminder Singh Goldy, and Mohali District President Prabhjot Kaur, staged a strong protest against Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini during his visit to Kurali and showed him black flags.
Punjab Youth leader Parminder Singh Goldy said that today they raised their voice against the BJP’s double standards. He stated that Nayab Saini and his associates are showing two faces. “On one hand, they go to Haryana and say ‘give us water, Punjab is not giving us water,’ and on the other hand, when they come to Punjab, they talk about Punjab’s welfare. This double standard is unacceptable. They change colors like a chameleon, but the people of Punjab understand everything. We will never allow them to succeed in Punjab,” he said.
Goldy further said that BJP claims to present itself as a model of development and talks about the Gujarat model. “However, when we look at the reality of Gujarat, we find that farmers there are facing hardships. Laws were brought against farmers, and only after hundreds of farmers across the country, including Punjab, sacrificed their lives in protest were those laws repealed. They claim to be well-wishers of farmers, but in reality, they bring policies that weaken agriculture,” he added.
Mohali District President Prabhjot Kaur said that the BJP-led central government has withheld Punjab’s Rural Development Fund. “During the floods, they had promised ₹1,600 crore in relief, but not a single rupee has been given to Punjab till date. Punjab suffered losses worth ₹20,000 crore, yet the central BJP government remained silent. This is a major betrayal of Punjab. They should be ashamed that instead of standing with Punjab in difficult times, they are misleading the people,” she said.
Prabhjot Kaur appealed to the aware people of Punjab not to fall for such statements. “Those who do not stand with Punjab in times of crisis can never work in the interest of Punjab. The real strength of Punjab lies in its people, and the people themselves will decide what is right for the state,” she added.
On this occasion, constituency organization in-charge Navdeep Saini, Vikas Mohan, District President Trade Wing Tarlochan Singh, District President Kisan Wing Jasbir Singh Balyali, State General Secretary Sanjeev Chaudhary, women leader Swaran Lata Sharma, and others were present.
