Congress MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira.
Jalandhar, September 8
As CM Bhagwant Mann is scheduled to hand over job letters to 560 SIs tomorrow, the opposition has alleged that AAP is favouring candidates from other states.
The controversy started after a list of seven new recruits for Mansa district went viral. Congress MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira tweeted: “Six out of seven SIs of only Mansa district recruited by your government are from Haryana and then you want youngsters from Punjab not to go to other countries.”
