CHANDIGARH, December 31: Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee President Capt Amarinder Singh today extended warm greetings to the people of Punjab on the occasion of Guru Parab of Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj and the eve of the New Year. He prayed for the peace, prosperity and progress of Punjab in the coming year.
Greeting people, Capt Amarinder hoped that the New Year brings new change in Punjab and the Punjabis get rid off of the most corrupt, most incompetent and most vindictive Akali-BJP government which betrayed their trust.
Promising a new future, he said, the New Year will usher in the Congress government in the state so that people will heave a sigh of relief from a government which only resorted to loot and robbery of the state resources and the victimization of its political opponents.
“Today when I look forward to year 2012 I hope that Punjab will be back on the track of economic recovery, that there will be no victimization of innocent people just because they belong to some other political party, that there will be no unemployed youth, that there will be no addicts, that our children get best education and the needy get best medical care and treatment”, he said in his New Year message to the people of Punjab, while remarking, “the worst is over and the best is to come”.
The PCC President hoped and prayed that the people of Punjab, having suffered the five years of Akali-BJP regime, gave a chance to the Congress and felt the difference themselves. “You have seen their five years and you have seen our five years prior to that and you are the best judge to compare the two and make your choice”, he appealed to the people of Punjab while seeking their support for the Congress to form the government in the state by voting for it in the ensuing assembly elections.
