Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann launched a scathing attack on the BJP on Friday, accusing it of orchestrating defections among AAP's Rajya Sabha members. Mann labeled the defectors as 'traitors' and claimed the BJP's actions were meant to destabilize AAP's growing influence in Punjab.
Addressing the media after returning from a week-long investment-seeking tour in Europe, Mann expressed confidence in the public's loyalty to AAP. He criticized the BJP for withholding rural development funds and for its historical animosity towards Punjab, highlighting recent political moves as further evidence.
The BJP's attempts to win influence in Punjab, according to Mann, are futile as evidenced by its limited political presence. Defectors such as Raghav Chadha and Sandeep Pathak announced joining the BJP, sparking concerns over the integrity of political alliances, Mann emphasized.
