AAP Alleges Central Agencies Misused to Hinder Punjab Welfare Schemes
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has accused the BJP-led central government of misusing agencies like the Enforcement Directorate to intimidate Punjab officials and obstruct welfare schemes, including the Mawan Dhiyan Satkar Yojna and GMADA projects. AAP alleges these actions are politically motivated attempts to disrupt Punjab's development agenda and compares them to tactics used before Delhi elections. The BJP has not responded directly, while AAP maintains such pressure will not deter Punjab's progress.
