AAP-Congress parleys prove AAP is Cong B-team: Harsimrat

Thursday, 21 March 2019 | PNS | Chandigarh

SAD’s Bathinda MP and the Union Minister Harsimrat Kaur Badal on Wednesday said that the open parleys between the Congress and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) proved that AAP was Congress’ B-team, and the latter was trying to stitch up a “disparate” coalition as it did not have the courage to go to the people alone after reneging on each and every promise made to them.

“Congress is not only holding talks with AAP for a formal alliance in Punjab for the forthcoming parliamentary elections but was also in an informal alliance with the so-called Taksalis and Sukhpal Khaira’s rebel AAP faction,” said Harsimrat.

She said that all this was a sign of desperation as the Congress realised that the people will take it to task in the forthcoming elections. “That is why, it is holding talks with AAP and fronting the Taksalis to target the panthic vote bank. These tactics won’t succeed. The panth has seen through the Congress game plan and will never reward those who rolled tanks into Sri Darbar Sahab or killed thousands of Sikhs in Delhi,” she said.

Speaking about AAP, Harsimrat said that the party’s graph had gone down so drastically that it was now reduced to begging the Congress party to concede three seats or even just one seat of Sangrur for its state convenor Bhagwant Mann. “AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal also seemed to have lost all his past bravado and is now begging the Congress for an alliance in Delhi, Haryana and Punjab,” she said.

She said that it was for the people to decide between the resolute leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the SAD-BJP alliance on one side versus a corruption-ridden non-performing Congress Government in Punjab accompanied by trouble makers and spoilsports like AAP.
