Congress will end the prevailing atmosphere of fear and distress in the state, said Sirsa MP Kumari Selja in Panchkula on Sunday while addressing two back-to-back public meetings in favour of Congress candidate from Panchkula assembly constituency, Chander Mohan.

Criticising BJP candidate Gian Chand Gupta, Kumari Selja, said, “People of Panchkula gave him two opportunities, but he failed to meet their expectations. Time has come to show the door to such an ineffective and incapable representative.”
“Future of Haryana has already been written, and the Congress is certain to form the government,” she said.
Panchkula is my karmabhoomi: Chander Mohan

The residents are deprived of basic amenities,” said Chander Mohan while assuring the gathering that he would ensure that the maximum benefits of Congress’s welfare schemes will reach the person standing on the lowest rung of society.

She added, “Congress is forming government in Haryana. Kalka is the number one assembly and our party’s victory is going to start from here.”

Let’s achieve 100% voting: Garg
Panchkula Senior leader of the Aam Aadmi Party, Prem Garg, urged people to come out and exercise their franchise on October 5.
Garg while addressing different public meetings said, “The people of Panchkula district must assess the journey of Panchkula’s development from its establishment as a district in 1997 till today. If they feel that the ruling parties have brought about development, they should vote for them. Otherwise, this time, choose the Aam Aadmi Party, which is providing education, healthcare, and basic services at affordable rates in Delhi and Punjab.”
Garg further said that India’s major political parties are still engaging in caste-based, rich-poor divisions, false promises and allurements. “The past is witness to the fact that after winning, these parties forget about the development of the region for four and a half years. Therefore, I appeal to the public once again; think carefully before pressing the button.”
“The time has come to rise above societal constraints and vote for development. Cast your vote, evaluate the progress from 1997 to today, and then press the button,” said Garg while appealing to residents of Panchkula, vote.
