Senior AAP Punjab leaders, Malwinder Singh Kang, Neel Garg and Dr Sunny Singh Ahluwalia, said in a press conference at the party headquarters on Wednesday that after this decision of the Mann government, the money of RDF will now be spent in the development of the villages and grain markets only. If this fund is properly utilized, the people of rural areas, especially the farmers will benefit a lot. They pointed out that during the previous governments this fund was misused due to which the central government had withheld Punjab’s fund since last year.

AAP leaders accused former Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal and Captain Amarinder Singh of misusing RDF, saying that the central government used to give this money every year to the Punjab government to improve the infrastructure of Punjab’s mandis and villages, but both Akali and Congress governments misused this money. Instead of using it for development, the funds were used to fulfil their own political agendas.
