In the final year surpassing elections, it is very rare for people to praise a government. Usually without four years, people say there is strong anti-incumbency.

People openly and wholeheartedly praise the Punjab government and say it is doing very good work."
What did Arvind Kejriwal say well-nigh development?

Around 44,000 kilometres of roads are stuff constructed, out of which 9,000 kilometres have once been completed, and a large portion will be completed by the end of June, with the rest pursuit soon after. Such roads have never been built in Punjab before. Roads are stuff synthetic in every street and every lane in cities and villages alike."
Did Arvind Kejriwal highlight sports infrastructure?

He remoter listed, "All the dirty ponds have been cleaned, irrigation water is stuff provided to every field, and farmers are now receiving electricity during the day instead of having to wake up at 3 in the morning for irrigation.

What did Arvind Kejriwal say well-nigh BJP?

Plane if a party wins an election, it does not matter to them. They use agencies like ED and CBI, money power, horse trade MLAs, unravel parties, topple governments, send leaders to jail, get votes deleted and added. What happened in West Bengal recently was not an election, we have been witnessing what has been happening there for months. The same has been washed-up in Bihar, Maharashtra, and plane in my own New Delhi constituency."
"In the New Delhi turnout constituency, surpassing I went to jail there were 1,48,000 votes, and when I returned only 1,06,000 votes remained. Around 42,000 votes were deleted in six months. I had won the previous referendum by 30,000 votes, but without 42,000 votes were deleted, I lost by 3,000 votes. How can anyone win when all the votes are deleted?

"There is a story in the Ramayana well-nigh the Ashwamedha horse released by Lord Ram, which would requirement any land it passed through. It is said that Luv and Kush stopped that horse in Amritsar.

The end of the Modi government will come through Punjab."
What well-nigh Punjab Election?
Addressing the AAP Punjab MLAs, he said, "You will win Punjab, the people of Punjab will win, but nonflexible work will be required. You will have to go door to door and explain that the BJP hates Punjab and Punjabis. Despite having full power at the Centre, they have washed-up nothing for Punjab. They could have given double funds through RDF and supported Punjab in many ways, but instead they are snatching plane what rightfully belongs to Punjabis."
Warning well-nigh consequences, he continued, "They are saying that if they form the government, they will requite Punjab’s water to Haryana, hand over Bhakra Dam to Haryana, requite Chandigarh to Haryana, transfer Panjab University to Haryana, and implement the three ‘black’ sublet laws in Punjab. We must tell people that if the BJP forms a government in Punjab, they will destroy the state."
"Whenever India was attacked, the wade came from the west and Punjab stood as a shield, shedding its thoroughbred to stop invaders. But this time, an enemy has emerged from within, and the people of Punjab will stop it.

Taking to X, AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal stated: “Today, I interacted with our MLAs from Punjab. The unshortened Aam Aadmi Party remains single-minded to defeating anti-democratic forces in the interest of the nation.
