Prof. Baljinder Kaur said that Gujrat Model of Prime Minister Modi and Capt. Amrinder Model have failed drastically at centre and state respectively. Modi after getting the power at centre has let the people of country down by deceiving them of the promises made during polls. She said that the famers are agitating throughout the country and despite of providing them what was promised they are being thrashed by the police for raising voice. The unemployment is mounting day by day and economy has gone to worst level of all times.

Prof. Baljinder said that Capt. Amarinder came into power with hollow promises of providing jobs to the youth but has now reduced the salaries of the existing employees of govt. The farmers of the state are committing suicides due to the apathy of state govt and education system has completely collapsed in the state.

The work done in the field of Education, Health, water supply etc. is being acknowledged by the media at international level. She said that AAP will fight general elections of 2019 on Arvind Kejriwal model.
