Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Sunday urged the OBC community in Punjab to unite, asserting that their collective strength could help the BJP form the next government in the State.

Addressing an OBC Sammelan in Rupnagar, he said the party ensures equal representation and criticised the Aam Aadmi Party government led by Bhagwant Mann, claiming people were disillusioned with its performance. He questioned the fulfilment of poll promises.

Mr. Saini highlighted the community’s contribution to nation-building and alleged it had long been denied due opportunities in Punjab.

Citing measures under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he referred to OBC representation, reservation in education, and constitutional status for the OBC Commission, urging support for the BJP in the upcoming Assembly polls.
