Interview | Punjab will vote on our performance, BJP’s polarisation card won’t work: Bhagwant Mann

The arrest of Delhi chief minister and Aam Aadmi Party’s national convener Arvind Kejriwal since March 21 has thrust Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann, 50, into a challenging task in the run-up to the general elections. As one of the key faces in the opposition INDIA bloc, he is pivoting the AAP’s sweepstakes on 22 Lok Sabha seats in Punjab, Delhi, Assam and Gujarat and Haryana. In wide-ranging interview with Executive Editor Ramesh Vinayak and Punjab Bureau chief Navneet Sharma on Tuesday, Mann railed against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and defended his performance in Punjab while exuding confidence on INDIA bloc’s poll prospects. Several BJP leaders have said, ‘give us 400 seats, and we will change the constitution’.
