(Krishna Raja) NEW DELHI, September 9, 2026: The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) tore into Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his attempt to spread misinformation around the tragic death of Gulzar Singh. AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann and Punjab Prabhari Manish Sisodia hit out at Rahul Gandhi for indulging in politics over a death, asserting that the Bhagwant Mann government is fighting a decisive battle against the drug menace in Punjab and working to clean up the drug network spread under the Congress, Akali Dal and BJP. The AAP Chief categorically rejected any connection of any government minister or MLA with Gulzar Singh’s death, urging Rahul Gandhi to refrain from what they termed “dirty politics” over the tragedy.
AAP National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal also shared a video on social media platform X showing Congress leaders visiting Gulzar Singh’s village and indulging in “dirty politics.” Replying to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, the AAP Chief stated: “Rahul ji, the Punjab government is fighting a decisive war against drugs. Who brought drugs to Punjab? Your Congress government brought them. The Akali Dal and BJP governments brought them.”
He pointed out, “For the first time, a state in the entire country is waging such a war against drugs. Today, the Punjab government is trying to clean up the drug menace spread by the Congress, Akali Dal and BJP.”
The AAP Chief further wrote, “I am deeply saddened that a leader like you is indulging in dirty politics over a dead body. Even your MLAs went to that village yesterday to politicise this person’s death, but the villagers drove them out. Watch this video. They did so because what you have written is absolutely false. I request you to visit this village yourself as well. No minister or MLA of our government has anything to do with this person’s death. Please do not indulge in such dirty politics.”
Meanwhile, CM Bhagwant Singh Mann stated: “Rahul Gandhi ji, do not do politics over dead bodies. Punjabis do not like this kind of politics. Look at this: when Congress leaders went to the victim’s village and tried to indulge in the same dirty politics, the people drove them away. In this case, the police have already arrested all the accused based on the identification provided by the family. The Akali Dal, BJP and Congress governments have been responsible for spreading drugs in Punjab. Under my government, no drug trafficker will be spared.”
AAP Punjab Prabhari Manish Sisodia stated: “Rahul Gandhi, who considers Sajjan Kumar a role model, were you not ashamed to lie over the body of a poor Dalit labourer? Gulzar Singh ji’s son is saying on camera, ‘My father was not pressured by the minister.’ You did not listen to the son or read the FIR. You simply picked up a video of a dying man and launched an attack on Punjab. You claim to be fighting drugs, yet you have turned even a labourer’s death into a political opportunity. Shame on you. Forget about apologising to the soul of the deceased for now. You should immediately apologise to his son.”
