CHANDIGARH: The Shiromani Akali Dal(SAD) MP from Bathinda Harsimrat Kaur Badal on Tuesday lashed out at Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann while speaking in the Lok Sabha and said that he is "drinking and driving the state."
Speaking on the increasing menace of illicit drugs and liquor in Punjab, she said, "Whole House knows that the present chief minister of Punjab used to sit in that corner a few months ago. Sir (Speaker), I challenge you to get details from the previous Speaker about how many complaints he had received from MPs sitting close to Mann to change their seats." She further added, "The CM who used to come to the Parliament in an inebriated state at 11am is now running the state."
