Chandigarh, June 7, 2026(Yes Punjab News)
Senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Punjab Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema on Sunday said that the people of Punjab have once again made it clear that the BJP has no place in the state, as the poor response to Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini’s public meeting in Dhuri reflected the complete rejection of the BJP by Punjabis.
Reacting to the rally, senior AAP leader and Finance Minister Harpal Singh Cheema said, “The people of Punjab have shown the BJP its true reflection through the Dhuri rally. The Haryana Chief Minister came to Punjab to address a public meeting, but instead of people, he was welcomed by rows of empty chairs. He returned after addressing those empty chairs, which clearly shows that there is no place left for the BJP in the hearts of the people of Punjab.”
The senior AAP leader said that BJP leaders may continue making visits to Punjab, but the aware and conscious people of the state will never accept the party. He stated that Punjabis have repeatedly demonstrated that they stand firmly against divisive politics and policies that work against the interests of farmers and ordinary citizens.
Highlighting the BJP’s anti-people character, Harpal Singh Cheema said, “Every child in Punjab knows that the Bharatiya Janata Party is the same cruel party that, in its arrogance, was responsible for the sacrifice of more than 750 annadatas of Punjab. These brave farmers laid down their lives while fighting to force the repeal of the three black farm laws. The people of Punjab can never forget the sacrifice of those martyred farmer brothers, nor can they ever forgive the BJP for the atrocities committed against farmers.”
Taking on the BJP’s central leadership and policies, Harpal Singh Cheema asserted that the party has consistently acted against the interests of Punjab. “The BJP is not only anti-farmer but also anti-Punjab. This is the same party that has always wanted to rob Punjab of its waters and has constantly remained on the lookout to snatch away Punjab’s rights. It has repeatedly treated Punjab unfairly and has also damaged the country’s economy through its wrong policies,” he said.
Harpal Singh Cheema added that the people of Punjab have sent a strong and unambiguous message to the BJP leadership that politics based on hatred, oppression and discrimination has no place on the soil of Punjab. “Punjabis will continue to stand united in defence of the state’s rights, its farmers and its hard-earned legacy of peace, brotherhood and progress,” he added.
