Speaking during a visit to Mata Bhadrakali Temple in Kapurthala, Saini congratulated Dhillon on his appointment as the party’s Punjab chief and praised his leadership abilities.

Responding to objections raised by former Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh over Dhillon’s appointment, Saini said the BJP’s state leadership was united and that Dhillon enjoyed the goodwill and blessings of senior leaders, including Capt Amarinder Singh.

Asked about the party’s prospects in Punjab following the recent local body elections, Saini asserted that the BJP would contest the next Assembly elections independently.

“BJP will fight the Punjab elections on its own. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the party will register a one-sided victory. The people of Punjab have made up their minds in favour of the BJP,” he said.

Saini added that welfare schemes and development initiatives being implemented in Haryana under the BJP government could also be extended to Punjab in the future.

Praising the new state president, Saini said, “Keval Singh Dhillon is a very capable person. Under his leadership, the BJP will strengthen its presence across Punjab. The party has entrusted him with a major responsibility, and I wholeheartedly welcome his appointment.”

On speculation that leaders from other political parties were in touch with the BJP, Saini said the party’s focus remained on connecting with the people of Punjab rather than pursuing political defections.

Commenting on the issue of extortion and law-and-order concerns in Punjab, the Haryana Chief Minister alleged that criminal activities had increased under the present state government and claimed that people were living under fear of extortion threats.

His remarks come as political parties begin intensifying preparations for the 2027 Punjab Assembly elections.
