AAP govt in Punjab will ensure security to PM, common people

Earlier in the day, Kejriwal raised the issue of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's security breach in Punjab and said that if AAP forms the government, it will ensure that it provides the necessary security to the PM and the common people.

"The PM's security breach is a serious issue. The Congress government has failed to provide security to the Prime Minister and common people. If AAP forms the government in Punjab, we will ensure that we provide necessary security to the PM and the common people," the Delhi CM said.

Last week, PM Modi`s convoy was stuck on a flyover when he was on his way to Hussainiwala in Ferozepur district to visit National Martyr`s Memorial.

Will announce AAP's Punjab CM candidate next week

The Delhi CM also said that the AAP would announce its chief ministerial candidate for Punjab next week.
