Delhi | Monday | 13th May, 2019

Summary:

Sangrur: Black flags greeted Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal as he launched the Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) election campaign in Punjab here on Monday. “In the last Lok Sabha elections, Kejriwal defamed Punjab by saying it is a drug haven and its youth are drug addicts. All constituencies in the state go to polls in the seventh and final phase of the Lok Sabha elections on May 19. Later, he tendered an unconditional apology to ex-Minister Bikram Singh Majithia for levelling charges of his involvement in the drug trade,” said Gurinder Singh, a protestor. Majithia is the brother-in-law of Shiromani Akali Dal President Sukhbir Badal and was a Cabinet minister in the previous state government..
