I appeal to the people of Majitha to defeat this conspiracy. It is not now your responsibility to contest the injustice done to Bikram. I appeal to you to work hard now to elect Bikram with double the margin than before", he said.Speaking about the assembly elections, Sukhbir claimed that the SAD(B)-BSP alliance was cruising towards a clear victory with more than eighty seats.He also claimed that the people of Punjab had recognized the fact that the SAD(B)-BSP combined alone could safeguard their regional aspirations and would never hand over their mandate to outsiders controlled by forces in Delhi."You will witness AAP facing a rout by winning only five seats in its supposed stronghold of Malwa. Congress will be totally obliterated", he added.
