Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, on Friday, started the election campaign of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) from Fatehgarh Sahib for the Lok Sabha polls despite heavy rainfall and hailstorm in the city, and said that no way he was going back before meeting the volunteers and addressing the gathered people. He said that hes ecstatic that the Aam Aadmi Party is starting their election campaign from the holy land of Sri Fatehgarh Sahib and appealed to the people to vote for AAP candidate Gurpreet Singh GP and send him to the parliament as their voice in the biggest panchayat of our country. Mann said that hes standing before the people today after giving 43,000 government to the youth, that too without any bribe or recommendation. "More than 90% of households are getting zero electricity bills. We built world class government schools, improved the condition of government hospitals, made medicines available there and opened Aam Aadmi clinics. I didnt sell the public properties of Punjab to buy shares in transport, sand mines and dhabas.  I bought a thermal power plant to give free electricity to the people of Punjab. I was a successful artist, if I only wanted money, I could have earned loads of it in the entertainment field," he added The CM added, "We are building new canals to give canal water to every field so that ground water can be saved. Canal water is reaching every corner of Punjab, at some places irrigation water was made available after 30 years. Our government in Punjab curbed the corruption, people are getting ration and government services at their door steps. We started a free pilgrimage scheme for our elders". He said that the BJP arrested Arvind Kejriwal because they are mistaken that they can stop the Aam Aadmi Party but they dont know rivers make their own way with the flow. "I was in Gujarat two days ago, there was a tsunami of the people in favour of the AAP. We are getting an overwhelming response in Assam and Kurukshetra. You have to vote not only to elect your representative but also to save our democracy and the constitution," he added.   "Give us 13 MPs from Punjab, we will win in Delhi, Gujarat, Assam and Kurukshetra. We already have 10 Rajya Sabha MPs. When we will have strength of 30-40 MPs in the parliament, no one will be able to stop our pro-people policies, they wont be able to stop our funds no more," he said.
