Punjab BJP lashes at State Govt

Punjab BJP President Shwait Malik on Thursday lashed at the state government, saying Congress should be more worried about saving the farmers of Punjab, rather than playing to the gallery and misleading the people by launching campaigns like ‘Save the Constitution’.

“The Constitution is safe, save the farmers of Punjab”, said Malik in a statement, adding, “Congress is the party which has brazenly trampled all institutions to accomplish its nefarious designs. The Congress has pointed the finger of suspicion at the Army, the Supreme Court, Election Commission and the RBI and has disgraced the Constitution. Instead of saving its dynasty, the Congress should ask its leadership in Punjab to save the farmers here”.

Malik said, “452 farmers in Punjab have committed suicide during the 408-day-rule of the Congress in the state.  The government, which came into power under the false premise of waiving off crop loans to the tune of Rs. 90,000 crore, is rubbing salt into the wounds of the farmers by waiving off farm debts worth few crore and issuing loan waiver certificates”.
