Ground Report | New Delhi: Who is Bhagwant Mann; The Aam Aadmi Party has made Bhagwant Mann, a Lok Sabha MP from Sangrur, as its chief ministerial candidate in Punjab. On Tuesday, Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal announced the name of Bhagwant Mann. Polling in Punjab is on February 20.
Last week, Kejriwal released a mobile number and asked the people of Punjab to state their choice of chief ministerial candidate. Arvind Kejriwal says that the people of Punjab have liked Bhagwant Mann.
Arvind Kejriwal said, “Many people put my name for the Chief Minister. 93.3 percent of people have liked Sardar Bhagwant Mann. Today, the face of the Chief Minister of Punjab is declared by the Aam Aadmi Party to Sardar Bhagwant Mann.
Arvind Kejriwal said that three percent of the people had taken Sidhu’s name. Many questions were also being raised about the method that Arvind Kejriwal had adopted to know the preferences of the public. If a person calls or texts ten times from different numbers, how will it be stopped? This method of Kejriwal was not being considered scientifically.
Who is Bhagwant Mann
Bhagwant Mann joined AAP in 2014 and has been an MP since then. He won one election after another from the Sangrur Lok Sabha constituency. Before joining politics, Mann was a comedian who acted in television shows opposite Kapil Sharma.
He is the head of the Aam Aadmi Party in Punjab and is an MP from Sangrur Lok Sabha constituency. In 2018, Arvind Kejriwal apologized to former Punjab minister and Akali Dal leader Bikram Singh Majithia for accusing him of being involved in the illegal drug business. After this, he resigned as the chief of the Aam Aadmi Party in Punjab. Many people also call Bhagwant Mann a drunkard. But he has been denying these allegations.
On the other hand, Congress has posted a video from its Twitter handle, in which Charanjit Singh Channi has been introduced as the face of the Chief Minister. Congress has posted this video when there is a situation of confrontation between Punjab Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu and Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi over the claim of Chief Minister.
