Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) leader Daljit Singh Cheema criticized Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convenor Arvind Kejriwal for his comments on Enforcement Directorate (ED) raids in Punjab. Cheema questioned Kejriwal’s response to the raids on his party members and government officials, urging him to address corruption issues first. The SAD leader highlighted instances where AAP members were allegedly involved in illegal activities, challenging Kejriwal to clarify the situation.
Cheema emphasized the need for transparency and accountability within political parties, suggesting that AAP should take action against accused individuals within its ranks. He raised concerns about turning every issue into a political or religious dispute and reminded Kejriwal of his party’s anti-corruption promises. Cheema underscored the importance of upholding the law and treating all individuals equally, regardless of their background or affiliation.
Addressing governance issues in Punjab, Cheema accused the AAP-led government of failing to maintain law and order, leading to a decline in public safety. He pointed out various attacks on public institutions and political figures, highlighting the deteriorating security situation in the state. Cheema also discussed the energy crisis in Punjab, noting the economic challenges faced by businesses and farmers due to rising fuel costs and power-related issues.
