Balbir Singh Sidhu launches a sharp attack on the BJP government over the hike in commercial gas cylinder prices The Congress will strongly oppose every anti-people policy that affects people's kitchens S.A.S.Nagar 2 May ( Ranjeet Singh Dhaliwal ) : Senior Congress leader and former Health Minister Balbir Singh Sidhu has termed the steep increase in commercial gas cylinder prices by the BJP-led central government as a well-planned conspiracy against small traders and common people, who are considered the backbone of the country's economy. Sidhu said that the significant hike in gas cylinder prices in a single day proves that the BJP government neither cares about small businesses nor about the kitchens of ordinary households. People who are already burdened by inflation, unemployment, and taxes are now being further oppressed by rising gas prices.

Truth Buries the Hype: Bajwa Slams Mann’s ‘Operation Optics’
Chandigarh 28 June ( Ranjeet Singh Dhaliwal ) : Leader of the Opposition and senior Congress leader Partap Singh Bajwa has come down heavily on Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, accusing him of turning governance into a stage for theatrics, following the Punjab Police’s clean chit to AAP’s own MLA and former Health Minister Vijay Singla in a 2022 bribery case.“In 2022, CM Bhagwant Mann made a grand spectacle of sacking his own minister, Vijay Singla, claiming he was taking commissions,” said Bajwa. “He released a dramatic video, declaring, ‘No one else knows, I’m taking strict action!’—as though he was delivering a script, not leading a government.” Now, with the case closed, Bajwa has questioned the authenticity of Mann’s intentions. “What was this entire exercise then? Just a scripted drama to grab headlines? Did the CM used his own party colleague just to build a false narrative of zero-tolerance?” he asked. Notably, the former cabinet minister and AAP MLA from Guru Har Sahai, Fauja Singh Srari, and his PA, Bachittar Singh have also been given a clean chit by the SIT that was formed to probe a suicide committed by Jashan Bawa, an AAP worker and the sarpanch of Tarida village in Ferozepur. Bajwa said that the incidents reflected a dangerous trend under the AAP regime: prioritizing optics over truth and drama over due process. “The people of Punjab were sold a story, not governance. He further slammed Mann for creating a political circus to divert attention from the AAP government’s failures on unemployment, law and order, and drug abuse. “This isn’t governance. It’s political theatre. Punjab is not a movie set. Our people deserve real leadership, not daily soap performances,” Bajwa asserted.“Punjab deserves better. It’s time we stop mistaking dramatics for accountability,” he concluded.
