Punjab Minister Ran Non-Existent Department for 20 Months, AAP Faces Criticism

Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal, a senior minister in the AAP-led Punjab government, was found to have been in charge of a department that did not exist, prompting opposition backlash and public scrutiny.

  • Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal, Punjab's NRI Affairs Minister, was assigned the non-existent Department of Administrative Reforms for nearly two years.
  • A recent government notification officially removed the non-existent department from Dhaliwal's portfolio, leaving him with only the NRI Affairs portfolio.
  • No staff were allocated, and no meetings were held for the department during Dhaliwal's tenure, highlighting the administrative oversight.
  • The BJP and other opposition leaders criticized the AAP government, calling it a failure of governance and questioning its internal processes.
  • The incident has sparked widespread social media ridicule, with users mocking the AAP-led Punjab administration for its apparent lack of oversight.
