Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on Saturday expressed confidence that the Congress will win all the four Assembly bypolls in Punjab and said it is the only party that can ensure the State’s development.
By-elections for Phagwara, Jalalabad, Dakha and Mukerian Assembly seats will be held on October 21 and the results will be declared on October 24.
The party’s campaign will revolve around the State government’s progressive and welfare schemes, he said at the inauguration of a two-day Kisan and Pashu Palan Mela here.
“The people of Punjab will once again put their seal of electoral approval on the Congress, which has proved itself in the last two-and-a-half years of governance in the State. It’s the only party equipped to ensure the development of Punjab,” Capt. Amarinder said.
He said the people will reject the regressive and divisive politics of the Opposition parties.
