Punjab Election 2022 | Aam Aadmi Party Has Emerged From RSS: Priyanka Gandhi Attacks AAP

Without taking any name, she also targeted former CM Captain Amarinder Singh saying that the government earlier was not being operated from Punjab “instead was being operated from Delhi.”  

New Delhi: Asserting it is important to know the truth about the political parties and their leaders, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Sunday alleged the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has emerged from the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).
The Congress leader made this assertion while addressing the ‘Navi Soch Nava Punjab’ rally in Punjab’s Kotkapura.

“Aam Aadmi Party has emerged from RSS...There's nothing in the name of educational and healthcare institutions in Delhi. It's important to know the truth about political parties & their leaders,” said the Congress leader. 

Without taking name, she also targeted former Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh saying that the government earlier was not being operated from Punjab “instead was being operated from Delhi” and termed it as a “hidden alliance.” 

“We've had Congress govt in Punjab for the last 5 yrs...this govt stopped being operated from Punjab, instead was being operated from Delhi, not by Congress but BJP. This hidden alliance has now come out in public... It's the reason behind bringing Channi as CM,” she said. 

Congress has fielded Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi as its CM face for the upcoming Punjab Assembly polls from Chamkar Sahib constituency. 

On Saturday, Arvind Kejriwal’s wife, Sunita and daughter Harshita campaigned for party’s chief ministerial candidate Bhagwant Mann in Punjab. Mann will contest the poll from Dhuri constituency. 

Elections for 117 seats of Punjab Legislative Assembly will be held in a single phase on February 20, while the votes will be counted on March 10.
