Punjab Chief Minister-designate and Aam Aadmi Party leader Bhagwant Mann on March 12 met Governor Banwarilal Purohit at Raj Bhavan in Chandigarh and staked a claim to form the government in the state.
He said, “I met Governor and handed over a letter of support from our MLAs and staked claim to form Government. He told me to tell him wherever AAP wants to hold a swearing-in ceremony. It will be held at the native village of Bhagat Singh, Khatkar Kalan at 12.30 pm on March 16.”
“People from houses across Punjab will come to the ceremony, they will also pay tribute to Bhagat Singh. We will have a good cabinet. Many historic decisions that were never made before, will be made. So, you will have to wait,” said Bhagwant Mann after meeting Governor.
