Pawan Kumar Tinu, Senior Spokesperson of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), reacted to the Shiromani Akali Dal's (SAD) decision not to contest the upcoming by-elections in four assembly constituencies in Punjab, stating that SAD Badal has become politically irrelevant in Punjab and is succumbing to the fear of the BJP.
Tinu said, “This decision reveals that the leadership of the Shiromani Akali Dal has surrendered to the pressures of the Bharatiya Janata Party. Their failure to contest these elections demonstrates political bankruptcy driven by personal and family interests, neglecting the needs of Punjab and its farmers.”
He noted that SAD once enjoyed significant support in these assembly constituencies, and their withdrawal from the elections is a clear indication of their decline. “People recognize that the Akali Dal is afraid of the BJP.
The people of Punjab will reject the BJP and the Congress, who have historically neglected Punjab and its farmers,” Tinu added. Tinu also expressed confidence in the upcoming elections, stating, “This is a semifinal for Punjab.
The Aam Aadmi Party has delivered on its promises, providing clean and transparent governance. We urge the public to unite and strengthen Punjab further by rejecting the outdated politics of fear.” He asserted that all AAP candidates will achieve significant victories in these by-polls.
