Fatehgarh Sahib, February 17, 2022: Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday revealed why Capt Amarinder Singh was removed from the post of Punjab Chief Minister.
Rahul Gandhi said that I asked Capt Amarinder to waive off the power bill of the poor but he denied to do the same.
"I will tell you why was Capt Amarinder Singh removed as the CM of Punjab. It is because he did not agree to provide free electricity to the poor people. He said I have a contract with the Power supplying companies," said Rahul Gandhi while addressing a public rally at Fatehgarh Sahib.
Gandi added that he said the same thing about waiving power bills and reducing power tariffs to Charanjit Singh Channi.
"Channi Ji didn't tell me like Capt that we have an agreement with power companies but he said 'let me check and will get back to you in 2 days. He called me in two days and said that Punjab Chief Minister is waiving off Rs 15,00 crore debt of poor people in Punjab. He didn't leave it there. Channi told me that the government can reduce Rs 10 per liter in petrol, Rs 5 in diesel, and also reduce water tariff. I thought he is the man who can change Punjab," said Rahul Gandhi praising incumbent CM Channi.
