“Someone who patronises the plunder of people’s money in his own state by financing mafia is talking about making Punjab drug-free,” RP Singh stated at a press conference in Chandigarh.

The senior BJP leader claimed that Kejriwal was demanding huge commissions from booze merchants in Delhi, who have increased in number from 250 to 850.
Harish Khurana, a BJP spokesperson, chastised Kejriwal for allowing the illegal booze trade to grow in Delhi by circumventing all excise laws.
