BJP wants to go alone in Punjab Assembly Election

way2barak, Jan 5: BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh said the party would contest all 117 seats in Punjab in the 2027 Assembly elections. Chugh, along with BJP state vice president Subhash Sharma, was in Nangal to participate in the 100th birth anniversary celebration of former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee, organised by the BJP.

Chugh said the BJP was not engaged in any negotiations with the SAD for an alliance in the forthcoming Assembly elections in the state. The party wanted to go it alone in the next Assembly elections and was working in each constituency at the grassroots level. “The party is in a position to form the government on its own for the first time in Punjab,” he said.

The national general secretary of the BJP said that the present AAP government has raised a debt of Rs 1 lakh crore in the last four years, and the total debt burden on Punjab has increased to about Rs 4 lakh crore. Having failed to perform in the state, the AAP government was creating non-issues in Punjab. The state government has started a campaign against the Viksit Bharat Guarantee for Rozgar and Ajeevika Mission (G RAM G) scheme launched by the Union government. Chugh said the BJP would launch a nationwide campaign to spread awareness regarding the new scheme.
