Congress holds ‘Kursi Yatra' to mock Kejriwal for ‘seeking to enter Rajya Sabha
Amid the election battle for Ludhiana West assembly constituency, Youth Congress organized a 'Kursi Yatra' targeting Kejriwal for 'seeking to enter Rajya Sabha.'
In the Kursi Yatra taken out with band instruments, a dummy Kejriwal was made to sit on a big chair placed on a chariot.
Congress candidate Bharat Bhushan Ashu's supporters carried Congress flags around the chair and sent a message to the people that this fight is not to make AAP candidate Sanjeev Arora an MLA from the West assembly seat, but rather, this fight is being fought by the AAP leadership to snatch the Rajya Sabha seat from a Punjabi man and fulfil the lust for power of Kejriwal.
National president of Mahila Congress Alka Lamba, co-incharge of Punjab Congress and MLA Rana Gurjit Singh participated in Kursi Yatra.
Lamba took a dig at Kejriwal and said that after losing the CM's chair in Delhi, Kejriwal, who has become accustomed to living a royal life, is now struggling for power.
After the doors of power were closed in Delhi, Kejriwal appointed all his generals trapped in the swamp of corruption, Sisodia, Satyendra Jain, Vibhav Kumar, to government posts in Punjab.
'Now Kejriwal wants to snatch the Rajya Sabha seat from Punjabi Sanjeev Arora and get power and a life of luxury. Today, the Congress has organized a Kursi Yatra to expose the conspiracy to send a candidate to the Rajya Sabha through a fraudulent route and made the people of the Western Vidhan Sabha aware. He is enjoying Z plus security of 2 states,' she alleged.
Meanwhile, Ashu ridiculed Kejriwal's developmental promises to the people of Ludhiana West.
He reiterated his charge against AAP and its leader Kejriwal that they were fighting the Ludhiana West by-election for not getting an MLA elected, but to 'reemploy their jobless leader in Rajya Sabha'.
Ashu said it was for the first time in the last 13 years that Kejriwal had become jobless after losing from the New Delhi assembly segment.
Now he has chosen a job for himself that of the RS member, for which he wants to sacrifice another RS member from Punjab, Ashu said.
