Now they are once again trying to enter Punjab\u2019s politics through gangsters. This will not be allowed, not by the people, not by Punjab\u2019s government, and not by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He accused Akali Dal of nurturing gangsterism during its 10-year rule with the BJP, citing incidents such as the Putlighar Chowk killing, the Nabha jailbreak, and numerous cases where gangsters openly operated under political protection. \u201cGangsters raised slogans of Majithia after killing a police officer. What more proof does Punjab need?\u201d Dhaliwal asked.<\/p>\n<p>Referring to Kanchanpreet Kaur, Dhaliwal said the Akali Dal is hiding the fact that she is the wife of a notorious gangster with more than 30 FIRs against him. \u201cWhy is Akali Dal afraid to say she is a gangster\u2019s wife? How did she come to Punjab? How did her immigration happend,\u201d he added, accusing her of using her husband to threaten voters over the phone.<\/p>\n<p>Dhaliwal warned that AAP\u2019s government will not allow gangster-backed politics to re-emerge in Punjab. \u201cNo party will be permitted to use killers and criminals to regain political ground. Whoever promotes gangsterism, protects gangsters, or includes them in politics, action will be taken against all of them,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n<p>Calling it an issue of Punjab\u2019s law and order and the dignity of its youth, Dhaliwal asked the people: \u201cDo Punjabis accept Akali Dal\u2019s attempt to again push Punjab towards violence? No Punjabi wants the return of murders and mafia politics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dhaliwal reaffirmed that under CM Bhagwant Mann, Punjab will not tolerate gangsterism or those who seek power through it. \u201cGangsters will not be allowed to interfere in Punjab&#8217;s politics again. This is a clear message.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Akali Dal Trying to Regain its Lost Political Ground in Punjab Through Gangsters, Their Cover Candidate Kanchanpreet Kaur Wife of a Major Gangster Punjab News: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Punjab Chief Spokesperson and MLA, Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal, launched a sharp attack on the Shiromani Akali Dal (Badal) during a press conference, accusing the party of [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":56215,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,21,20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-56214","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest","category-political-news","category-punjab"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.2 -
