Punjab Congress to launch Mangda Insaaf campaign on November 11
The party will conduct outreach programmes across the state to engage with various social groups and gather public feedback.
Punjab Congress president Pargat Singh announced on Tuesday that the party will start its 'Punjab Mangda Insaaf' campaign on November 11. According to a report by India Today, the initiative aims to connect with citizens and address the concerns of different social groups throughout the state.
The campaign, which began with an 'Insaaf Rally' in Sangrur on November 4, will expand into the Malwa, Majha, and Doaba regions. Senior leaders will lead the outreach to reach households, while Campaign Committee chairman Charanjit Singh Channi will visit Assembly constituencies via the 'Jawani Sambhal, Jatta' cycle rally.
Singh, who is also the Jalandhar Cantonment MLA, alleged that the state is facing issues with drugs, gangsterism, and law and order. He claimed the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government has seen a worsening security situation and described the ruling party as the BJP's 'B-team'.
The Congress leader further alleged that Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann lacks actual control over the government and that Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia are running Punjab. He also stated that approximately 20 to 25 per cent of paddy remains unprocured in mandis, despite government promises.
Regarding the upcoming Assembly elections, Singh said the party is conducting surveys and meetings to finalise its first list of candidates. He added that the party is also working with manifesto committee chairman and MP Dr Amar Singh to incorporate public and expert feedback into their election roadmap.
