Only PLC-BJP Can Ensure Level of Security That Punjab Needs: Amarinder Singh

News 18  

Punjab Lok Congress chief Amarinder Singh on Tuesday said only his party can ensure the security of the sensitive border state. "The state's and country's safety is of paramount importance, which only the PLC alliance, with the support of the BJP-led government at the Centre, could ensure," he said. Singh expressed anger over Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu's hugging the Pakistan army chief, who, he said, was ordering his soldiers every day to kill Indians. Singh said though he had ensured 22 lakh new jobs and investment worth Rs 1 lakh crore on the ground during his tenure, much more was needed to be done to ensure the state's progress.
