The Punjab Youth Congress has decided to send its leaders to poll-bound Himachal Pradesh to “expose the false claims” of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Punjab.
Youth Congress chief Brinder Singh Dhillon said that all office-bearers of the unit will leave for the neighbouring state from the Congress headquarters here on September 11 and campaign there on September 12 and 13.
“We will show the people of Himachal Pradesh all the promises made in Punjab and all that has been done on ground in the past six months,” he said in a statement.
He also asked chief minister Bhagwant Mann to stop his tours to HP as he was needed more in Punjab.
