Use voting right judiciously, says Amarinder Singh

PATIALA: Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh on Saturday underlined the need for people to make judicious use of their power to vote to rid the nation of anti-democratic forces, which were destroying the constitutional fabric of India.

In an informal interaction with mediapersons after hoisting the Tricolour at the state-level Republic Day function at Raja Bhalinder Singh Sports Stadium here, the CM said, "The Lok Sabha elections due in a few weeks will give us the chance to save ourselves from these anti-people forces that are ruling the country." He further said that the Constitution itself had been endangered through brazen violation of its rules by the incumbent BJP-led government at the Centre. It was up to the people to save themselves and the country from the divisive and destructive policies of the central government by bringing in the much-needed political change in the system, said the CM.
