Chandigarh, November 20

AAP state affairs co-in-charge and national spokesperson Raghav Chadha has termed the praise showered by PCC chief Navjot Singh Sidhu and Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi on Pakistan and its PM Imran Khan as “worrying”. According to Chadha, “this love of Channi and Sidhu for Pakistan is dangerous for the internal security of the country and Punjab”.

In a statement today, Chadha said Punjab was a border state, and its police and the BSF had been catching drones, tiffin bombs and intoxicants (heroin) sent from across the border time and again. He said the ruling party talked about opening the border, but if it was done so at this juncture, inflow of drugs and weapons from Pakistan would increase four times. It was unbecoming on part of the CM and Congress state president to make such statements, he added.

Govt misleading on PPAs, says cheema

• LoP Harpal Singh Cheema has accused CM Channi of lying about the cancellation of power purchase agreements with private thermal plants
• He challenged the CM to present document regarding cancellation, as suggested by ads and hoardings across Punjab
• Calling it a punishable offence, he said AAP would launch an awareness drive to expose the Congress if the government didn’t stop making misleading claims
