The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) and the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) alliance on Tuesday released their manifesto for the 2022 Punjab Assembly elections, with a slew of promises surrounding agriculture, education, health, social security, and 75% reservation for ‘Punjabis’ in all government and private jobs.
SAD president Sukhbir Singh Badal and the BSP in charge of Punjab affairs Randhir Singh Beniwal said at a joint press conference that the alliance was committed to the idea of a genuine federal structure in the country and would continue to fight to secure justice for the State in river waters, territorial, political and religious matters.
Making a strong pitch for “Punjab for Punjabis”, they stated that healthcare and education plus social welfare would be the key thrust areas.
