“Punjab is neck deep in debt, over 270 farmers died bysubside in last 5 years!” says Vijay Inder Singla, Congress candidate fromAnandpur Sahib Constituency.
A day after filing nomination from Sri Anandpur Sahib constituency, Vijay Inder Singla commenced his election campaign from the residence of Charanjit Singh Channi’s (Former CM, Punjab) residence, the roadshow made headway to prominent places at Shri Chamkaur Sahib and concluded at Morinda with great fervour and rigour!
Attacking on the policies of pervious Punjab Government, Vijay Inder Singla said, “Punjab is neck deep in debt and this is a consequence of flawed policies and inexperienced governance style. The state government is taking on more fresh loans to carry on with the routine admirative work adding to more and more debt. Of all the Indian states, Punjab has one of the highest debt levels. Its outstanding liabilities are projected to be 46.8% of GSDP by the end of 2024.”
“Most of the guarantees that the Aam Aadmi Party had promised when it came to power have not been fulfilled yet. Farmers are not getting compensation. AAP had assured to give Rs 1,000 every month to women and old pension for state employees, but this government has failed to fulfill it till now. worsening economic conditions of farmers, agricultural labourers, and rural artisans is worrisome in the state and Congress will work towards their upliftment.” Said Singla.
“Despite the centre and state promising to double farm income, the number of farmers dying by suicide has been rising consistently. Over 270 farmers died by subside in last 5 years as they are caught in the vicious debt cycle. On the other hand the central Government has pushed back farmers with tear gas shells and pellet guns and now it’s time that the farmer community will push back BJP with their votes.” Added Vinjay Inder Singla.
Addressing the media, Charanjit Singh Channi eulogised, “Vijay Inder Singla and his family have always strived towards to betterment of the society in Punjab with utmost integrity. As a MP from Sangrur, Singla was instrumental in the development of that area, be it a hospital as big as PGI and cancer hospital. I also thank him for his work on the road widening & connectivity in Chamkaur Sahib.”
