AAP candidate wants Punjab elections free of liquor, drugs

Ludhiana, Punjab: The Aam Aadmi Party organised a Jhadoo Chalao Yatra on the final day of its week long rally in the city. Starting from Feroze Gandhi Market, the yatra culminated near the railway crossing on Pakhowal Road.

Before setting out for the yatra, AAP’s candidate for the Lok Sabha elections from Ludhiana advocate HS Phoolka addressed party volunteers. Referring to preparations for the BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi’s rally in Jagraon, Phoolka lambasted the ruling SAD-BJP government for the VIP culture that was inconveniencing the common people.

“Our greatest victory will be when elections are fought without the distribution of drugs and liquor, and people vote based on issues that affect the common man,” said Phoolka.

Later, he led the rally, cleaning the roads with a broom, the party’s symbol.

Noted actor Mangal Dhillon also joined the rally today. The weeklong rally concluded with AAP volunteers cleaning slums with brooms along Sidhwan Canal.
