Haryana Chief Minister Dismisses AAP MLA's Allegations, Questions Her Identity
In a sharp rebuttal to claims made by AAP MLA, Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini has categorically denied any knowledge of the legislator or her constituency. Responding to queries from media personnel in Chandigarh, CM Saini stated, "I don't even know her name or which assembly constituency she represents."
CM Saini Questions Credibility of Claims Citing Modern Surveillance
The Chief Minister further emphasized the implausibility of the allegations by pointing to the pervasive nature of modern media and surveillance. "Today, the media is everywhere, and there are CCTV cameras everywhere. Photos would have come out in public if any such meeting had taken place," he asserted, suggesting that such claims lack concrete evidence in an era of constant documentation.
Criticism of AAP Government in Punjab and Unfulfilled Promises
Shifting focus to broader political dynamics, CM Saini expressed respect for the people of Punjab while launching a scathing critique of the ruling AAP government. "I observed that the people of Punjab are not happy with the performance of the AAP. They made big pre-poll promises, but in the last 4 years, they disappointed people," he remarked.
He highlighted specific grievances, particularly among the agricultural community. "Farmers are unhappy as they don't get a fair price for their crops and face problems in the mandis," Saini noted, drawing parallels to similar allegations made against AAP in Delhi, which he characterized as "Jhooth Ki Dukaan" (shop of lies) that voters ultimately rejected.
Historical Bonds and Political Aspirations in Punjab
When questioned about potential disapproval from political parties in Punjab regarding his visits, CM Saini underscored the deep historical connection between Haryana and Punjab. "We have a strong bond with Punjab because when Haryana was carved out, two brothers were separated," he explained, referencing the states' shared history.
He extended his criticism to include other political entities in Punjab, stating, "Be it the Congress or AAP in Punjab, they made false promises to people, and voters are disappointed with them." Concluding on a forward-looking note, CM Saini expressed optimism about political change, asserting, "People are keen to bring in Modi-led BJP in Punjab," indicating a perceived shift in public sentiment toward national leadership.
This exchange highlights ongoing political tensions between neighboring states and sets the stage for continued debate over governance and public satisfaction in the region.
