Chandigarh, 29 December 2023
On the issue of the Republic Day tableau, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Punjab’s chief spokesperson Malvinder Singh Kang said that after the central government did not give place to the Punjab tableau for the second consecutive year, we were expecting that the Punjab BJP leaders would stand with Punjab. But Punjab BJP President Sunil Jakhar lied on the matter instead of standing with his state.
Kang, showing the media the concept sent by Punjab on the official website of the Government of India, said that there is no picture of Bhagwant Mann and Arvind Kejriwal anywhere in it. This proves that Sunil Jakhar absolutely lied about photos. Kang said that ever since Narendra Modi came to power, BJP has opened a shop of lies. BJP leaders keep lying on every issue.
Kang said that the Punjab government had sent the concept of its tableaus with Mai Bhago to represent women empowerment. The second tableau was about the martyrs of Punjab and the third tableau was about the heritage of Punjab. These tableaus can also be seen on the official website of the Government of India. But Sunil Jakhar betrayed the people of Punjab by lying about the photos of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and Arvind Kejriwal. We did not expect these cheap lies from him.
Kang said that this attitude of BJP shows that it does not consider Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, Rajguru and Kartar Singh Sarabha as martyrs. For its cheap politics, BJP is insulting the martyrs of Punjab, who sacrificed their lives for India’s independence. The reason for this is that BJP’s mother organization RSS had supported the Britishers at the time of independence and it did not respect the tricolor flag for many years after independence. This rejection also reflects their low and poor thinking.
Kang said that the tableaus of Gujarat and Maharashtra showed their culture and got a place in the parade because both states have the BJP government. The tableau of Maharashtra has pictures of freedom fighters Shivaji Maharaj and Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar. In the tableau of Gujarat, the women empowerment and culture of that place has been shown. In the tableaus of Punjab too, we focused on women empowerment , culture of Punjab and the sacrifice of the martyrs here. Then on what basis was the concept of Punjab rejected?
He added that all the states where BJP is in power are continuously getting a place in the January 26 parade, but they have left Punjab out of the parade for the second time in a row.
Kang asked that the BJP leaders should answer that if the tableau of Maharashtra about women empowerment, culture and freedom fighters could be accepted then why was the tableau of Punjab’s women power and martyrs rejected? He said that it is clear that BJP hates Punjab, Punjabiyat and the martyrs of the country.
