Sukhbir indulging in petty politics : Chugh

Chandigarh, Dec 16 (UNI) BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh on Wednesday lambasted Shiromani Akali Dal president Sukhbir Badal for spreading 'poison' and igniting communal passions in Punjab in the garb of fighting farmers' cause.
Reacting to Badal's statement that the BJP had become a "tukade tukade" gang Chugh said the way Sukhbir, after parting ways with the BJP, was trying to create a divisive and disruptive narrative was strongly reprehensible.

"All Punjabis should wake up to the nefarious designs of Sukhbir Badal and his party", he said.

Chugh said the BJP had always stood for Hindu-Sikh unity in Punjab and has tried to foster the brotherhood whenever there were strains of stress.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken special care to address the Sikh issues, be it providing succour to the 1984 riot victims, or opening of the Kartarpur Corridor, or lifting a ban on foreign donations made to the Golden Temple, and many more initiatives like that.

Even during the times of militancy in Punjab, the BJP made sure that the Hindu-Sikh relations did not suffer and the spirit of Punjabiat was kept alive. Even at a time when silver spades were distributed for digging SYL and the copies of the nation's constitution were burnt, the BJP made sure that bad blood did not spread in the society.

He pointed out that the BJP has always kept the Punjabi spirit of Hindu-Sikh unity alive even during the times when massacre of Hindus was taking place in a planned manner.
