AAP to break previous record in 2027 Punjab assembly polls: Kejriwal

CHANDIGARH, May 20:  AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday expressed confidence that his party would break its previous record in the 2027 assembly elections in Punjab, claiming that there is “pro-incumbency” in favour of his outfit.
He also slammed the opposition parties, alleging that they are left with no issue to raise and hence abuse Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann.
Kejriwal reached Ludhiana on a two-day visit to hold meetings with the party leaders in preparation for the state assembly elections. He was accompanied by Mann.
“I am completely sure that in the coming assembly elections, the AAP will break its previous record and we will perform well,” Kejriwal said while speaking to reporters in Ludhiana.
There is a lot of positivity about the AAP after the completion of four years of the Government, he said, adding that, “Today there is pro-incumbency.”
“People are talking about our works, people are saying that electricity has been made free, people are saying canal water has reached fields. Now farmers are getting electricity during the day time.
“There is Rs 10 lakh (cashless treatment) insurance, roads are being constructed on a very large scale and playgrounds are being developed. Rs 1,000 per month will start reaching every woman’s account. So much work was never done by any government. People are happy,” Kejriwal said.
The opposition does not have any issue and they only abuse Mann saab, he added. (PTI)
