Aam Aadmi Party exposed land scam of Congress candidate Surinder Kaur’s son

Tinu appealed to the Punjab government to conduct a vigilance inquiry into the matter 

Jalandhar News: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has accused the son of Congress party’s candidate for Jalandhar west Surinder Kaur of land scam. The party said that her son Karan misused his mother’s position as Senior Deputy Mayor and took financial advantage of it.

Exposing this in a press conference on Sunday, AAP leader Pawan Kumar Tinu said that Coca-Cola Company had 125 marla land in Deol Nagar.

Earlier, Coca-Cola had a depot on that land. The company had it registered as commercial land. When Surinder Kaur was the senior deputy mayor, her son Karan had bought that land from Coca-Cola Company. Now he is illegally selling that commercial land by making residential plots. AAP leader Rajwinder Kaur Thiara was also present with Tinu in the press conference.

Tinu said that the documents submitted for his NOC are also fake. He also showed documents with Karan’s picture to the media and said that this is a living example of misuse of power and corruption.

He said that there is a sewerage problem in the entire Jalandhar city but Surinder Kaur, being the senior deputy mayor, connected that land to the sewerage system without the permission of the corporation because her only motive was to earn money. He said that when Surinder Kaur did so much fraud while being the deputy mayor, imagine what she will do if she becomes an MLA! Then she will break the records of corruption.

He said that Congress candidate Surinder Kaur was the senior deputy mayor for five years, but was never available for the common people. Her office always remained closed. Dirty water comes in her own locality because she could not get a tubewell installed there too. Tubewells were installed there after the Aam Aadmi Party government came to power.

Tinu also attacked the Congress party and said that Congress leaders consider corruption as their right. Whenever they get power, they work only for the progress of their family instead of the development of the people. The Congress party is the party that pushes the whole country into corruption.

Pawan Tinu demanded a vigilance inquiry into this matter from the Punjab government.  He appealed to the people to support Aam Aadmi Party in the by-election and said that Jalandhar can develop only when honest people become MLAs and ministers. So give a reply to the corrupt leaders through your votes and choose honest people as your representatives.
