AAP secures historic victory in the Tarn Taran by-election; the people affirm their trust in Mann government’s work-driven politics
Chandigarh/Tarn Taran (The Uttam Hindu): The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has registered a resounding and decisive triumph in the Tarn Taran Assembly by-election, delivering a clear mandate in favour of development-driven politics, transparent governance, and the honest leadership of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and National Convenor Arvind Kejriwal. This emphatic verdict reflects Punjab’s unwavering confidence in AAP’s model of pro-people governance and progressive change.
AAP Punjab In-charge Manish Sisodia, celebrating the victory with ministers, MLAs and volunteers at the party office, said, "Punjab’s people have once again rejected Congress, BJP, and Akali Dal. Congress leaders, despite not even being in power, issued arrogant statements and challenged the consciousness of Punjabis."
The people responded with a historic mandate driven by their anger against Congress’s repeated anti-social and insensitive remarks. AAP's all by-election victories, Ludhiana West (urban seat), Jalandhar West (Dalit Majority seat) and Tarn Taran (rural and panthak seat), prove AAP is the first choice of every region and community.
Addressing a press conference at the AAP headquarters in Chandigarh, Punjab AAP President Aman Arora, accompanied by Cabinet Ministers Laljit Singh Bhullar (AAP's Tarn Taran By-election In-charge), Hardeep Singh Mundian and Barinder Goyal, delivered a strong message to opponents.
Aman Arora said, "The landslide victory is a direct stamp of approval by the people of Tarn Taran on the work done by the Mann Government over the last three and a half years. Congress and BJP, who had been running false propaganda for months, lost their deposits, proving that Punjabis have completely rejected them."
He added that Congress indulged in divisive caste and religious politics and used insulting language against the Dalit community. The people have answered them with a crushing defeat. BJP, which has consistently attacked Punjab and Punjabiyat, has been rejected with absolute clarity by the people of Tarn Taran.
Aman Arora emphasized that AAP’s victory across three different demographic categories proves that AAP is the preferred party of every religion, caste, region and class: Jalandhar West (Dalit-majority reserved seat), Ludhiana West (urban Hindu-majority seat) and Tarn Taran (purely panthak Sikh-majority seat).
“This proves that AAP is today the first choice of every faith, every community, every class, and every section of society,” he said.
He added, “Opposition parties claimed these elections would be a ‘semifinal’ for 2027. If so, then the semifinals have been won decisively by AAP. And the 2027 finals will also be won by AAP with an even bigger margin.”
Aman Arora thanked Arvind Kejriwal, CM Bhagwant Mann, Manish Sisodia, all AAP ministers, MLAs, workers and every voter of Tarn Taran for strengthening the party.
