Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann today moved a confidence motion in the state assembly to prove his government’s majority on the floor of the House.
Punjab Governor Banwarilal Purohit on Sunday gave his nod to convene the House on September 27 after days of squabble between the Raj Bhavan and AAP government over holding a session of the Assembly. The CM tabled the Motion of Confidence, but two BJP MLAs, Ashwani Sharma and Jangi Lal Mahajan had earlier walked out of the House after Speaker Kultar Singh Sandhwan announced that Mann would move the confidence motion. Speaker also said the Business Advisory Committee of the House has decided to extend the duration of the session till October 3 as against the earlier tentative schedule of one day.
Bhagwant Mann said that three crore people of Punjab have faith in them and he has full faith in my 91 soldiers (AAP MLAs). He also alleged that the Congress was supporting ‘Operation Lotus’ and that its MLAs ran away from discussion. Criticising the BJP over ‘Operation Lotus’, CM said the party feels only they should be in power everywhere.
