Punjab (04/02/2022): Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi on Friday urged people to vote for him in the upcoming Assembly elections in Punjab and said that he has come as a “hope” after years of rule by Captain Amarinder Singh and Parkash Singh Badal leaving the villages in the state in a “bad condition”.
Addressing a public meeting in his new constituency Bhadaur (SC), Channi said, “People’s enthusiasm tells that a new revolution is coming in Punjab. Now the rule of farmers, small traders and the poor is coming. I have come as a hope. Captain ruled for 10 years, Badal was CM for 5 times but today villages are in bad condition, there is no development. The farmers are in bad condition. There is no drinking water in the village.”
Lauding his short term as a Chief Minister at the office after the Captain stepped down last year months ahead of the polls, Channi said that he has come with a mission and will not leave the people of Punjab.
“Today university colleges are being built in Chamkaur Sahib. Science and English teachers have come in schools. Strong leadership is needed in this area. There were MLAs from Akali or AAP especially from this area but nothing happened. Youth need university college. Adopt me, I will remain here as yours, I will not go. Make me win, give me a chance and form the government. I have come with a mission. It is my duty to work. I assure you there would be no dearth in the development. You have seen for 70 years, see me for once,” he said.
The party has fielded Channi from two constituencies in the polls that include Bhadaur (SC) and Chamkaur Sahib from where he is the sitting MLA.
