Punjab elections: People should teach a lesson to those who looted state, says AAP's Raghav Chadha

LUDHIANA: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA from Delhi and AAP Punjab affairs co-in-charge Raghav Chadha campaigned in Payal in Ludhiana for party candidate Manwinder Singh Gayaspura.


Addressing a public meeting Chadha said, "We are good people, we will do good job. We are honest, will stay honest.” Chadha appealed to the people to come together to teach a lesson to those leaders who have looted Punjab.

He slammed chief minister Charanjit Singh Channi and questioned his claim that he was poor.

Chadha said Channi claims to be a poor man but his relative Bhupinder Singh Honey was raided by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and Rs 10 crore cash and Rs 54 crore bank entries, a watch worth Rs 16 lakh, a luxury car and property worth crores ware seized. He asked Channi where all this wealth came from.

Chadha claimed that Honey had admitted to the ED that he had collected Rs 325 crore during Channi's 111-day tenure. So, they amassed at the rate of Rs 3 crore per day. Even Badals can match this strike rate. He said that Channi used to say that he was an auto driver, tent wala and cycle mechanic. But no auto driver has crores of rupees. No tent owner has a luxury car. No cycle mechanic has assets worth crores.
