PPCC chief Capt Amarinder Singh appealed to the public to vote for Congress candidates, saying that the state could turn into another Kashmir under “fascist forces” like the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) as “Pakistan is waiting for an opportunity to revive extremism in Punjab”.
“The nexus between the Khalistanis, AAP and Naxals will bring back the dark days of terrorism in Punjab, during which more than 35,000 lives were lost,” he said, while
addressing a rally in favour of party candidate Karan Kaur Brar.
Targeting the Badals, Amarinder said the SAD-BJP leadership during its 10 years of rule failed to fulfill even 22 per cent promises made in their manifesto, while the Congress had fulfilled all promises in just four years during its last tenure.
Meanwhile, AAP leader Dr Jaidev Singh, who was BSP candidate from Muktsar in 2012, joined the Congress during the rally.
