The AAP today staged a protest outside the residence of Congress MLA Raj Kumar Verka for allegedly misleading sanitation workers over regularisation of jobs. The protesters also burnt his effigy.
Leader of Opposition in Assembly Harpal Singh Cheema, who led the protesters, said the Congress government had been trying to mislead safai workers on jobs.
A few days ago, Verka had met CM Capt Amarinder Singh and announced regularisation of sanitation workers services. Cheema said the government had neither come up with any such policy nor had the issue been considered in the Cabinet. Cheema said Verka should apologise to sanitation workers for playing with their sentiments. The LoP said in the coming days, the AAP would expose false promises made by the Congress government to the people. “The CM had made tall promises to different sections of society, but none had been fulfilled so far,” he said.
