Punjab CM Mann Condemns Oppositional Fear Tactics
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann has issued a stern warning to opposition leaders, urging them to avoid resorting to intimidation and baseless fearmongering tactics. This comes in response to a senior Congress leader's claims of bombs smuggled into Punjab, which Mann vehemently dismissed as unfounded and intended to incite panic. Emphasizing that no state or central agencies corroborated these claims, Mann criticized the irresponsible nature of such statements. He advised the opposition to move away from sensationalism and engage in substantive political discussions. Mann remarked that the electorate was now wise to the opposition's tactics, as voters had already rejected leaders who were previously in power. Highlighting the new era in Punjab's political landscape, Mann noted that leaders who underestimated the public's intelligence are now politically irrelevant. Mann, coming from an ordinary background, stressed his commitment to the people's welfare and highlighted his effective governance. He criticized opposition leaders who isolated themselves in luxury and disregarded the needs of ordinary citizens. Mann's call for a shift from fear tactics to meaningful discourse reflects a broader trend of seeking genuine political engagement.

Taking a jibe, he said that rather than telling the location of bombs Bajwa is now running pillar to post behind the lawyers for seeking refuge from law for his misdeed.
The Chief Minister said that instead of indulging in such tantrums the opposition must focus on issue based politics. He said that the traditional parties are envious of him because he hails from a common family and is working tirelessly to ensure welfare of people.
