Navjot Sidhu tears into Kejriwal over poll promises

Punjab Congress president Navjot Singh Sidhu on Monday slammed AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal over poll promises, saying those who live in glass houses should not throw stones at others .He dubbed as a lollipop Kejriwal's promise of giving Rs 1,000 per month to all women above 18 in Punjab if AAP is voted to power and asked him how many women have been given this amount in Delhi.Sidhu's remarks came a day after Kejriwal accused the leaders of the Congress, BJP and the SAD of constantly bashing his party AAP for the announcements.The Congress leader also questioned the Delhi CM on how many jobs he has created for teachers, days after the opposition party's national convener promised to regularise services of temporary teachers in the state. In a series of tweets, Sidhu targeted the Delhi CM for not having one woman in his cabinet. He said women empowerment means mandatorily engaging women in every step of electoral process like the Congress is doing in Punjab.On the issue of teachers.

Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones at others. @ArvindKejriwal Ji you talk of women empowerment, jobs & teachers. However, you don’t have one woman minister in your Cabinet. How many women in Delhi get ₹1000 despite revenue surplus left by Sheila Dikshit Ji !!
