Early Times Report

Jammu, Oct 26: It sounds incredible but true, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government in Punjab spent a whopping amount of Rs 24 crore to advertisement to introduce a spray machine worth Rs 8 lakh.
Recently Punjab Chief Minister introduced a machine for managing crop residue and stubble burning in the state. Although cost of the machine is Rs 8 lakh, the Punjab government spent a whopping amount of Rs 24 crore on advertisements to highlight the introduction of this machine.
“What can we expect from a government which spent an amount of Rs 24 crore on advertisement while introducing a machine which costs Rs 8 lakh”, BJP national spokesperson Sambit Patra said on Wednesday while exposing AAP leadership for befooling the people.
Recently AAP government in Punjab introduced a machine to solve the problem of stubble burning.
Already facing allegations of spending crores and crores of rupees on advertisement at cost of the poor people, the Punjab government released advertisements of this machine in newspapers across the country. According to an estimate Punjab Government spent Rs 24 crore on these advertisements.
Shiromani Akali Dal chief Sukhbir Singh Badal has also accused Punjab’s AAP government of spending crores of rupees on advertisements to befool people through a propaganda exercise.
The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) president said AAP was trying to mislead Punjabis with a propaganda to cover up its abysmal performance.
It has not only faulted on development and creating new jobs but also presided over the complete collapse of the law and order situation in the state, he alleged.
Badal said the AAP government spent Rs 2 crore on the installation ceremony of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann even as advertisements were being given to newspapers and media houses as far away as South India and even states where AAP is in the process of contesting elections.
