Defence Minister Rajnath Singh while addressing the rally in Amritsar ahead of Punjab polls said, "There are two batters in Congress right now. Both of them want to bat at the same time, neither of them wants to be in the non-striker end. Both batters are fighting on one crease. So, it is certain that they will get out."
Earlier, campaigning in Faridkot Punjab, BJP leader Rajnath Singh attacked Aam Aadmi Party and said "AAP party has opened liquor stores in every bylane of Delhi & they promise to make Punjab free from drugs? BJP will work to eradicate drugs and terror from the state. You will see the results after one year of formation of our govt here."
This statements of BJP leader come after, Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday promised the strongest security system in the state, he said "If AAP is voted to power, Punjab Govt will work with the Govt of India to ensure safety & security in the state. Punjab is a sensitive border state. To check the proliferation of drugs & drones, it is necessary for Punjab to have an honest Govt."
