"This is the only party where we raise our concern, even if our own government is not working as per the expectations of people. Even the Channi government of 111 days amended earlier decisions for the benefit of Punjab. Our internal democracy is so strong that no other party can match it," he said.
On the anti-incumbency, Singh said, "By replacing Captain Amarinder Singh with Channi ji, we have fixed our mistakes and taken care of anti-incumbency."
