Act against Punjab FM Manpreet Badal, MLA Warring urges Rahul Gandhi

Muktsar, July 12

Gidderbaha MLA Amarinder Singh Raja Warring today, through a tweet, urged former AICC chief Rahul Gandhi to take disciplinary action against Finance Minister Manpreet Badal and ask him to resign.

Ludhiana MP Ravneet Bittu and Zira MLA Kulbir Singh Zira retweeted his post. In his tweet, Warring wrote: “The FM is busy distributing public money among Akalis, who destroyed Punjab. Manpreet is working on a plan to weaken the Congress and strengthen the Akali Dal for the past few months. I request Rahul Gandhi to take disciplinary action and get his resignation.”

Manpreet’s brother-in-law Jaijeet Singh Johal said: “The FM had given the cheque for Rs 10 lakh to a welfare association of Phase-4 in Bathinda. Those receiving the money are office-bearers of the association. The man whom Warring is labelling as an Akali actually supported us in the MC elections. Warring is making a controversy unnecessarily.” — TNS
