Bhagwant Mann's tweet
Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann tweeted that it is my open invitation to BJP chief Jakhar ji, Sukhbir Singh Badal of Akali Dal and Raja Vading-Pratap Bajwa of Congress that instead of kich-kich every day, let us sit in front of Punjabis and the media. Who has looted till now, debate live on all the issues like brothers-nephews, brothers-in-law, friends, toll plazas, youth, farming, business-shopkeepers, words of gurus, the water of canals.
You can also bring paper with you but I will speak by word of mouth. 1st November 'Punjab Day' will be a good day. You will also get time for preparation. I am fully prepared because there is no need to memorize things to speak the truth.
Sukhbir Badal has also given the challenge
