Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee chief Sunil Jakhar said the people of Punjab would never forgive the Akalis for the grave sins of sacrilege and drugs.
“If they (Akalis) feel that the people will forget or forgive the acts of sacrilege and drugs, they are mistaken,” he said.
Jakhar said despite odds faced by the Congress government due to financial crisis inherited from the SAD-BJP, the farmers were provided relief from debt and youth were given jobs.
“This is despite the fact that the Akalis had only left empty coffers for us,” he said, adding that the next two years would see a complete turnaround in Punjab.
“Though the Congress does not discriminate like that, let me tell you it is always a privilege to have an MLA belonging to the ruling party,” he added.
