Punjab deputy chief minister (CM) Sukhbir Singh Badal said today that if Delhi-based Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) comes to power after the February election in the state, it will ruin Punjab.
Elaborating his point of view, Sukhbir said that since Punjab is an agrarian state, it needs continuous support from the Government of India, adding that AAP will not be able to get that support because it is always fighting with the Central government.
Pb is an agrarian state & needs GOI support. God forbid if AAP comes to power they will ruin Pb fighting with Centre says Sukhbir @htTweets

Sukhbir was referring to the long conflict between the former Delhi lieutenant governor Najeeb Jung and chief minister Arvind Kejriwal who also is the top AAP leader.
In fact, Kejriwal’s continuous fight with lieutenant governor has ruined Delhi. So, people of Delhi have been suffering for the past about 2 years. For example, today Delhi is the most polluted and perhaps the dirtiest city in the world.
Similarly, the education standard in Delhi is in a deplorable state, but Kejriwal and others in his government have been telling blatant lies about the quality of school education which has actually gone from bad to worse.

Although Kejriwal won the election with the promise to weed out corruption from Delhi, the truth is that corruption is so rampant in almost every street of Delhi that Kejriwal and Delhi government have failed to check it.
In an ongoing RMN Poll given below, a whopping 78% people say they are not satisfied with Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Delhi.

Meanwhile, Najeeb Jung has resigned from his post. But it is expected that Kejriwal’s fight will continue even with the new lieutenant governor who assumed office a week ago.
Thus, Sukhbir Singh Badal’s observation that Kejriwal’s AAP will destroy Punjab may be right. Sukhbir also said that he, along with his father and CM Parkash Singh Badal, is the right leader to help Punjab develop further.
My father & me are the best combination for Punjab. If god gives us another 5 years, the level of development will be unimaginable.
