Ludhiana: Aam Aadmi Party’s convenor and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has alleged that Punjab Deputy CM and president of Shiromani Akali Dal (Badal) has made 63 “fake CDs” to defame the Aam Aadmi Party.

AAP leader Jarnail Singh said that to save the SAD-BJP alliance in Punjab, Sidhu has launched a new front.
Branding him as a “responsibility shirker”, the deputy chief minister said if voted to power, Kejriwal would spell doom for the state’s farming community as his constant feuds with the Union government would hamper the prospects of smooth procurement and payments to farmers and would ultimately result in non-lifting of wheat and paddy from the “mandis” and godowns.
Kejriwal has embarked on a four-day visit to the state from yesterday for giving a fresh push to AAP’s assembly poll campaign amid heckling by rivals and voiced apprehension about more muck being thrown at the party in the run-up to the elections. “Keriwal thinks he is the only honest person in the world and honesty is his copy right”, Mr Sidhu said. I said “Sat Shri Akal”; you (Kejriwal) only want “Yes Men”.
“Delhi BJP will ensure that people of Punjab will expose Kejriwal on his misdeeds in every nook and corner of Punjab”, city BJP chief Satish Upadhyay said. “He is opposing the Badals in the garb of targeting Kejriwal”, he added.

He said “BJP Delhi leaders will soon meet the Election Commissioners and handover the copy of the judgement of the court and request the Election Commission to pronounce its judgement in the case of disqualification of the 21 Parliamentary Secretaries”. “This is also a crime to remain silent”, said Mr Sidhu.
