Jakhar Slams Mann: Arrogance or Alcohol? Punjab’s Respect at Stake
Sunil Jakhar today launched a scathing attack on Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, condemning his recent remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Amit Shah. Jakhar accused Mann of exhibiting unacceptable arrogance and disrespecting Punjab’s long-standing tradition of courteous political discourse.
The former Congress leader highlighted what he termed Mann’s “unbecoming” language, further emphasizing the seriousness of his criticism. He pointed to Mann’s past struggles with alcohol during his tenure as a Lok Sabha MP, suggesting a pattern of erratic behaviour.
Jakhar demanded a public apology from the Chief Minister, stating that Mann’s actions are damaging Punjab’s image and undermining the state’s political standing. He called for a return to respectful debate and urged Mann to prioritize the welfare of Punjab’s citizens over personal attacks.
This latest spat adds another layer to the already tense political climate in Punjab. The incident raises serious questions about leadership and accountability, particularly at a time when the state faces numerous pressing challenges. The coming days will be crucial in observing how the Aam Aadmi Party responds to Jakhar’s pointed accusations and whether Mann will indeed offer the demanded apology. The impact on the upcoming elections will also be keenly watched.
