A public programme in Tolewal village of Sangrur in Punjab turned into an uncomfortable showdown for Punjab Minister and AAP state chief Aman Arora when a Nihang youth confronted him over the alleged open sale of chitta (heroin), liquor and rising thefts.
The incident, captured on video, has triggered sharp reactions from Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal and Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini.
He added that people from Punjab continued to repose faith in the BJP’s commitment to a drug-free state and a secure future for its youth. Targeting the Bhagwant Mann government, Sukhbir Badal pointed out that Tolewal is barely 1.5 km from Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann’s native village Satauj.
Badal said villagers were questioning Aman Arora about the government’s action against drugs, warning that the lives of children and teenagers were at risk. Haryana Chief Minister calls AAP government ‘AAP-da’ Describing it as an “AAP-da government”, Saini said villagers had cornered the party’s state president and minister over the open sale of chitta.
He also claimed that Giani ji was worried that his boys could be picked up for raising their grievances before the minister.
