Here’s come Kejriwal’s Punjab Model after Sidhu’s Punjab Model

Just a day after Punjab Pradesh President of Congress Navjot Singh Sidhu announced his Punjab Model, Aam Aadmi Party chief and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal came down to Mohali on Wednesday to announce his 10 pointed Punjab Model. Now, Call it a coincidence or just opportunity, it has been quite consistent to see Navjot Singh Sidhu and Kejriwal have the same ideas and plans for Punjab and co-incidentally they have been announcing just after each other’s public statements. 
 
In this last year only, Kejriwal had high words for Sidhu. On November 23, 2021, Kejriwal praised Sidhu and said, “claims both Capt Amarinder and Punjab CM Channi tried suppressing Sidhu”. Sidhu did take jibe of Kejriwal on his offer of Rs 1000 to Punjab girls/women but later Sidhu offered Rs 2000 to Punjab women in name of Women empowerment.
 
On Wednesday, Kejriwal with his many luring announcements shared his 10 points Punjab Model. “We have identified the ten-point ‘Punjab model’,” he said. The first point in the model is employment. “There is unemployment in every house. The youth is looking to go to Canada. We will make such a Punjab that all those who have gone to Canada will come back in five years,” he said.
The second point is the drug menace. “Drugs are being distributed freely in villages. Congress failed to arrest the sale of drugs. We will finish the entire drug syndicate and mafia,” he said. The third point is law and order. “There have been so many incidents of sacrilege in Punjab but is not even one case has there been punishment given. This was because big people were involved in the conspiracy and these parties were involved. People’s sentiments are hurt by incidents of sacrilege. We will ensure justice in each such case no matter who it is. We have no setting with anyone,” he said. Kejriwal also promised a ‘corruption-free Punjab’, better health facilities, improved educational facilities, 24X7 free of cost power supply, allowance of Rs 1,000 per month for women, and improvements in agriculture, trade, and industry to boost incomes and employment.
 
This is not the first time when Kejriwal announced the almost alike things that Sidhu had said and vice-versa. As per a senior leader AAP, In the year 2017 at the time of the assembly elections, Navjot Sidhu and Kejriwal had long conversation and Kejriwal offered a deputy CMship to him. Sidhu being adamant to know CM’s face then, refused to take the Deputy CM offer from AAP Party.
