CHANDIGARH: A day after his remarks on migrants from UP, Bihar and Delhi made in the presence of Priyanka Gandhi Vadra during Tuesday’s rally in Ropar stoked a controversy, Punjab CM Charanjit Singh Channi on Thursday claimed his statement had been distorted by the rival parties. He said he was referring to AAP leaders coming to Punjab from outside and not the migrants coming to work in Punjab.
In a video message, Channi said, "Since yesterday, my statement has been distorted. Migrants in Punjab have always contributed to the development of the state. They work in factories and elsewhere and they enjoy our love and affection. We have a close relationship with them.
