Sukhbir has no right to question credentials of NRIs: Bajwa

Punjab Congress chief Partap Singh Bajwa today slammed Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal for dubbing the NRIs protesting the visit of Akali Ministers in the USA and Canada as "anti-national", asserting that he has no moral authority to question their loyalty.
"It is ironic that you have come to this level to attack those questioning the open loot of Punjab by you and your family members, and non-governance and mismanagement as anti-national rather than satisfying their queries," Bajwa said.
"The hostile reception your ministers are getting in these countries is a mirror reflection of the anti-Akali sentiment in Punjab," he said.

Bajwa said that he and his party were with all the Punjabis who were staging demonstrations and questioning the performance of the Badal government, adding that they were loyal to their native land.
The problem with Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal was that he had been selling dreams to the people and the balloon had now burst, he said in a statement here.
"No proof of the failure of his government was now needed than the move to raise Rs 10,000 crore from the banks in the name of carrying out development to buy victory in 2017 Assembly Election," Bajwa said.

Sukhbir should tell the people as to which projects would be completed now when the functional time with the government was not more than a year, he said.
