Amritsar (Punjab) [India], March 16 (ANI): Aam Aadmi Party National Convenor and former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday said that Bhagwant Mann will complete his five-year tenure as Chief Minister of Punjab.
"Three years ago, Bhagwant Mann took oath as Chief Minister. Today, the biggest problem of Punjab is drugs and corruption. We will take up a war against drugs and corruption... This is a fight for justice... Bhagwant Mann will complete his five years as the Chief Minister, and he will also complete the next 5 years," Kejriwal said addressing a press conference in Amritsar.

A journey of progress, transparency, and transformation led by CM Bhagwant Mann," Balbir Singh's 'X' post read.
Mann took over as 17th Chief Minister of Punjab on March 16, 2022, when the Aam Aadmi Party secured a more than two-third majority in the previous assembly elections. The party went on to win 92 seats out of 117 and dethroned Congress from power.

Bharatiya Janata Party won 48 seats in a historic mandate, returning to power in the national capital after 27 years. (ANI)
