Chief Minister Never Took Punjab’s Economic Crisis Seriously: Partap Singh Bajwa

BY Connect Newsroom, Jan 31, 2025 5:10 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

Bajwa alleged that the Chief Minister has never addressed Punjab’s economic challenges seriously, which explains his absence from key NITI Aayog discussions.

Leader of Opposition in Punjab Vidhan Sabha, Partap Singh Bajwa, has strongly criticized Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, accusing him of failing to represent Punjab in central NITI Aayog meetings.

Bajwa alleged that the Chief Minister has never addressed Punjab’s economic challenges seriously, which explains his absence from key NITI Aayog discussions.

The senior Congress leader further expressed skepticism about any significant announcements for Punjab in the upcoming budget, holding Mann responsible. He said the people of Punjab are suffering due to the indifferent attitude of both the state and central governments.
