Congress President Sonia Gandhi on Tuesday who addressed various Congress rallies in Punjab said that the present Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD)-Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Government in Punjab is not properly utilizing the funds sent by the Centre and slammed the state government for pushing the state from number one to twelfth position in India.
During her address Sonia Gandhi said: " In the last five years, the Akali Dal-BJP Government in Punjab has created such a condition that the state, which was at the number one position once upon a time, has now slipped to the 12th position."
Sonia Gandhi continued, "Akali Dal-BJP Government had to borrow money from the government employees to pay them wages. The policies of this state government have affected the agriculture badly”. “The industries are moving out of Punjab causing unemployment. As a result the youth here are becoming victims of drugs," said Sonia Gandhi.
"The atrocities are on the rise on the women. The condition of the health sector is very poor. The aam aadmi does not have the safety because of the worsening law and order situation," added the Congress President.
"Congress has done a lot for Punjab. Dams, canals and powerhouses were first built here. But now, the condition is not the same. There is no electricity for the farmers and the common man, " concerned Sonia Gandhi.
