AAP trying to gain heroic sympathy for corruption cases: Chugh
Chandigarh, apr 8
BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh today said came down heavily on the AAP government ministers who led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann staged a dharna at Khatkar Kalan on Sunday to protest against the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and said that the AAP was trying to trying to take “heroic dividends” out of corruption cases against its leaders.
In a statement here Chugh strongly condemned the AAP chief minister and ministers for taking shelter under the name of Shaheed Bhagat Singh to hide corruption done by the senior party leaders led by Kejriwal. “Ït is a big insult to Shaheed Bhagat Singh for which people of Punjab will never forgive the AAP leaders”, he said. Chugh said the liquor policy scam happened in Delhi when the Kejriwal government has been drum-beating about health clinics in Delhi and Punjab. It was a cruel joke being played on the people of Delhi and Punjab and now the AAP leaders are trying to tarnish the name and glory of an iconic freedom fighter of the nation in Khatkar Kalan.
He said it was blasphemous to place the imprisoned Kejriwal’s pictures along with that of Shaheed Bhagat Singh and Baba Saheb Ambedkar and was a grave insult to the national heroes. While reiterating his demand that the Punjab excise policy should also be investigated by a central agency after a hooch tragedy took place in the chief minister’s hometown, Sangrur, killing about two dozen people, Chugh called upon people in Punjab not to fall in the blackmailing trap of the AAP leaders.
