Chandigarh: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Punjab has come under fire from the BJP's National General Secretary Tarun Chugh, who also urged that Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann "immediately resign." Chugh claimed that the state's administration has entirely disintegrated.
He claimed on Monday that the Punjab Aam Aadmi Party government's "lopsided" and "myopic vision" had caused an unprecedented collapse of the state government and that the AAP leadership had entirely failed.
Reacting to the decision of the Punjab Civil Services officers' to go on a week-long strike, Chugh said it reflected seriously how the AAP government had collapsed in the border state, which was an alarming situation.
The BJP leader appealed to the Punjab Governor Banwarilal Purohit to intervene in this crisis moment in the state and get a report from the AAP government about the abysmal failure of governance in the state.
He also expressed his serious concern at the Punjab IAS officers' delegation expressing resentment over the Punjab Vigilance Bureau's action against IAS officer Neelima, who was recently booked by the Vigilance Bureau department.
A delegation of nearly 50 IAS officers met Chief Secretary V.K. Janjua and expressed their resentment before him. The officers said that the due procedure had not been followed while registering a case against Neelima.
Chugh said the AAP leaders have proved themselves to be thoroughly incompetent to run Punjab despite the big mandate given by the people.
He demanded the resignation of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann for his failure to handle the bureaucracy. He said that never in the state has such a situation arisen that could indicate that people are at a loss when government officials were not on duty.
