Chandigarh, March 25: Aam Aadmi Party leader Aman Arora has asserted that the Punjab Government’s recent actions against its own former minister reflect a significant shift toward a culture of responsibility. Addressing the media in Chandigarh on March 25, Arora stated that the arrest of Laljit Bhullar serves as a clear signal that the administration will not provide a safe haven for those facing serious allegations, regardless of their political standing.
Arora drew a sharp comparison between the current government and the previous Congress and Akali Dal tenures, which he declared were characterized by a habit of dismissing charges against their own leaders without proper investigation. He maintained that the AAP government is defined by its willingness to acknowledge wrongdoing and take corrective measures swiftly. The party president affirmed that this approach is necessary to restore public faith in the state’s political institutions.
“Our government acts swiftly on allegations,” Arora asserted, noting that Bhullar was removed from his position immediately upon the emergence of the case. He further declared that the Haryana government’s failure to act against those involved in an ADGP’s suicide stands in stark contrast to Punjab’s proactive stance. Arora maintained that the AAP remains dedicated to upholding the law without bias or favoritism.
The state president declared that the era of political protectionism in Punjab has ended. He affirmed that the government would continue to focus on transparency and ensure that every individual is held accountable under the same legal standards.
