An Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA has put his party in trouble with one of his statements. Punjab's Dharamkot MLA Devendrajit Singh has accused the AAP government of treating his area step-motherly. He said that in the last three years, no health-related project has been given in my assembly constituency.

What did the MLA say on the minister's statement?
On the minister's statement, the AAP MLA said that Dharamkot seat is a backward area. He said, we are also residents of Punjab and our district is Moga. Our government has not given a single health-related project to Dharamkot assembly constituency.
Only two out of eight posts of MBBS doctors have been filled in Kot Ise Khan CHC so far. Moga has been treated step-motherly.
