Mr. Bajwa claimed the AAP government has failed on all fronts. "AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal had promised Rs 54,000 crore funds per annum for setting up colleges, medical colleges, new infrastructure including roads, bridges.

There will be different programmes in Majha, Malwa and Doaba regions. The effort is to reach out to maximum people, the LoP said. "The message has to be clear. Which party fights for 'Jai Jawan, Jai Kisan'? Which party can bring peace in Punjab and save the youth?" said Mr.
