Amarinder Singh Raja Warring, president of the Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee and Ludhiana MP, today claimed that Congress-backed sarpanches have emerged victorious in 50-60% of villages across Punjab, marking a resounding victory for the Congress and a clear rejection of AAP’s “misgovernance and false promises."

“The people of Punjab have sent a powerful message today. Despite AAP’s relentless manipulation and misuse of power to sway the panchayat elections, Congress-backed candidates have won the confidence of the people in over half of the villages across the state. This victory is not just a reflection of our party’s hard work, but also of the people’s trust in our vision for Punjab,” he maintained.

Warring said the AAP had done nothing but deceive the people of Punjab with hollow promises and poor administration for the past two and a half years. “Their attempt to influence these elections is just another example of their disrespect for democracy. But the people of Punjab have had enough and have overwhelmingly chosen the Congress to lead their villages, making it clear that AAP’s days of manipulation are over,” he said.

“The results of the panchayat elections, alongside our success in the Lok Sabha elections, are proof that the Congress party is the true representative of the people of Punjab. They have been working tirelessly on the ground, and the people have responded by placing their faith in us once again,” he added.
