He said, "The people of the state are feeling cheated by voting for AAP. In two years, the AAP government has pushed the state into deep debt."

During his election campaign in Mansa city, he said that the worrying fact is that "the government does not even have funds to pay salaries to its employees".

Parampal Kaur Sidhu said, "Development has come to a complete standstill. Development work in villages is being done only with the funds of the central government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi."

He said that not even a month has passed since the beginning of the financial year, the state government has taken a loan of hundreds of crores.

"The government is unable to pay salaries to its employees. Last year, the government also took a loan of more than Rs 3 lakh crore. The central government is funding development projects in villages. These include road construction, sanitation drinking water facilities etc. .is being done by the PM Modi-led government in the villages,” he said.

“Whether it is the establishment of AIIMS in Bathinda, a central university or the construction of a corridor to the holy shrine of Sri Kartarpur Sahib, all these projects have been initiated by the PM Modi-led government,” Sidhu said.

He campaigned in villages and colonies of Mansa, Talwandi Sabo, Bathinda (Urban) and Bathinda (Rural) assembly constituencies.
