The central BJP leadership today urged Governor VP Singh Badnore to ask Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh to prove his majority in the Vidhan Sabha, claiming “most of his MLAs have rejected him”.

“There is a ‘ghamasan’ (chaos) in Punjab’ Congress, the price of which people of Punjab are paying. Clearly, the party is a deeply divided house, most of the MLAs are not in favour of Capt Amarinder Singh,” said senior leader and BJP general secretary Tarun Chugh.

Claiming Singh did not enjoy the majority any more, Chugh said while “people of Punjab had already shunned him, now his MLAs have also rejected him. Punjab is slipping into a crisis. I urge the Governor to ask Captain Amarinder to prove his majority so that truth can come out. ‘Doodh ka doodh aur pani ka pani ho sake’,” he said.

“While people in Punjab are not getting the injection, Punjab Congress leaders are partying in five-star hotels. The CM is enjoying in the five-star hotels and his government is selling vaccine, provided for people by the Centre, at a much higher price. The people of Punjab are being looted while the CM is trying to save his government, sitting on the doorsteps of the Gandhis,” he said.
