Bengaluru: The State President of the AAP, Prithvi Reddy, said that the Aam Aadmi Party-ruled Punjab state Government will provide full cooperation to overcome the problem of rice shortage in the state.
“Congress party in the state has come to power today without any prior preparations, completely copying the programmes of Aam Aadmi Party and announcing many hasty guarantees just for vote bank politics. We will not engage in any political hypocrisy in this situation where the poor people of the state are in trouble due to these half-baked guarantees. Now the poor people of the state are in trouble,” said Prithvi Reddy.
Our party’s aim is to alleviate the suffering. In my conversation with Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann on June 18, the Chief Minister said that we are ready in principle to give a full helping hand. We are ready to provide full technical support required by the Chief Minister to hold talks with the Punjab Chief Minister immediately,” he added.
Speaking on the occasion, Prithvi Reddy condemned the attitude of the BJP Government at the centre as anti-poor and sad. A letter has already been written to the Chief Ministers, Deputy Chief Ministers and Chief Secretaries of the state. Prithvi Reddy urged the Government to get the surplus rice from the Punjab Government to solve the problem.
