Rahul Gandhi Criticises Bhagwant Mann Over Punjab Drug Crisis

Rahul Gandhi addressed the media on Monday, accusing Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann of failing to tackle the state’s escalating drug crisis. He said that Mann’s leadership has left many families in distress and that the government’s response has been inadequate. Gandhi added that the public can “smell alcohol” on him, implying a lack of genuine commitment. He called for a leader who truly understands the suffering caused by drug addiction and is personally dedicated to reversing the trend.

The Indian National Congress’s criticism was met with silence from Mann’s party, while the Aam Aadmi Party expressed disappointment at the remarks.
