Haryana CM Saini Blames AAP, Congress for Punjab 'Crisis,' Questions Flood Relief Claims

He used a funds-disbursal event to question Punjab's flood relief figures, casting BJP governance as the alternative.

Overview

  • Saini alleged AAP and the Congress turned 'Rangla Punjab' into 'Kangla Punjab' through anti-farmer policies and corruption.
  • He cited conflicting flood-compensation figures, saying Bhagwant Mann announced Rs 20,000 per acre while Arvind Kejriwal later claimed Rs 50,000 per acre.
  • He asked who took the 'remaining' Rs 30,000 and accused Punjab's leaders of failing to deliver promised relief on the ground.
  • Contrasting Haryana's approach, he touted measures on stubble-burning mitigation and farmer support as evidence of BJP-led governance.
  • Punjab AAP’s Baltej Pannu rejected the allegations, saying compensation was paid and claiming the Centre withheld Rs 1,600 crore in flood relief.
