Haryana CM accuses AAP government in Punjab of indulging in ‘election-time freebie politics’

Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini criticized the Punjab government's announcement of a ₹1,000 monthly stipend for women, calling it "election-time freebie politics." He argued that the people of Punjab are disillusioned with the AAP government and will vote for change in the next Assembly elections. Bhagwant Singh Mann, the Punjab Chief Minister, countered by stating that opposition parties' fear of the AAP returning to power is evident in their criticism of the stipend announcement.
