Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday accused the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP)-led Central government of stalling ₹8,000 crore meant for various pro-people schemes in Punjab.
He said this was a grave injustice to Punjab that could not be tolerated. The Union government was afraid of the AAP’s rising popularity and hence was stooping low to stall the party’s progress, he charged.
He also accused the Centre of working overtime to defame the AAP and using the Central agencies to arm-twist the Opposition, especially the AAP.
