Addressing the House, Dr. Singh said, \u201cBefore targeting Bhagwant Mann, the opposition should first reflect on their own generations. Tell us, what have you done for Punjab? You left Punjab impoverished; we are striving to make it prosperous.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dr. Singh highlighted the performance of the health department during recent floods in Punjab, stating that the teams immediately went to the ground and began relief operations as soon as the floods hit. \u201cWe had 170 ambulances deployed across affected areas, providing extensive service and saving lives,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
He further urged support for the Chief Minister, saying, \u201cWe must stand with CM Bhagwant Mann at this time. Those calling Rangla Punjab \u2018Kangla Punjab\u2019 should first reflect on their own shortcomings.\u201d<\/p>\n
