Punjab Assembly Election 2012: Mann Dal to contest all seats

December 14, 2011 | By Sikh Siyasat Bureau

Fatehgarh Sahib (December 14, 2011) The Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar) led by S. Simranjeet Singh Mann, has declared that it would contest all 117 seats in the upcoming Punjab assembly elections. The party has declared to contest the elections on the issue of “Khalistan” (separate Sikh homeland).

The party would forge alliance with only those political parties which would highlight the Khalistan issue, SAD(A) chief Simranjit Singh Mann said.

Slamming Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal and Punjab Congress head Amarinder Singh, Mann said both the leaders were “chips off the old block”.

“About 40 lakh youths were unemployed during Amarinder’s regime. This figure has increased to 43 lakh during the SAD (B) regime,” he said.

“Amarinder is fielding former Punjab DGP Sarabjeet Singh Virk and Badal former state DGP Parmdeep Singh Gill in the elections,” Mann said. He alleged all these officers are guilty for mass level human rights violations.
