Bhagwant Mann to make announcement about a “very big decision”
A day after taking charge as the Chief Minister of Punjab, AAP leader Bhagwant Mann said today that his government is taking a “very big decision” in the interest of the people of the state.
“A very big decision will be taken today in the interest of Punjab. No one in the history of Punjab would have taken such a decision till date. I’ll announce shortly…,” Mann wrote on Koo.
Bhagwant Mann took oath at Khatkar Kalan, freedom fighter Bhagat Singh’s village on Wednesday. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and other senior Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leaders, wearing “Basanti (yellow)” turbans, were on stage during the ceremony.
Shortly after taking oath, Bhagwant Mann said a golden chapter has started in the history of the state and that it would be “badhta (progressive) Punjab, rather than Udta Punjab”, referencing the 2016 blockbuster that highlighted Punjab’s drug problem.
“I’m not here to diss anyone today. I am the Chief Minister of everyone in Punjab, even those who did not vote for our party,” he said.
