Punjab Congress chief Amarinder Singh on Friday hit out at the SAD-BJP government, claiming that there was a lack of governance in the Sstate due to which corruption and drug problem were rampant and the education and health systems had collapsed.
“In most party programmes, youth come to us with a majority of questions related to the lack of governance by Akalis,” he told reporters here.
“Corruption is rampant, drug problem is at its peak, education and health system has collapsed and common man is worried where to go to get his work done,” he said.
“In Punjab, police is only busy catching small fries in drug trade and not touching the sharks,” he said, adding drug issue will be one of the key concerns during electioneering.
Attacking Revenue Minister Bikram Singh Majithia over drug issue, he said: “Once Congress forms government in the State, we will prosecute Majithia.”
On the arrest of AAP MLA Naresh Yadav in a desecration case in Malerkotla, he said, “This business of arresting people without concrete evidence in hand is absolutely wrong.”-PTI
