Congress' Lok Sabha MP from Ludhiana Ravneet Singh Bittu today slammed the Shiromani Akali Dal and Aam Aadmi Party for issuing "irrational" statements against his party just to "hog the media limelight".
Interacting with media persons after reviewing arrangements for Chhapar Mela, the MP said both these parties have been stumped by "unprecedented" work done by the Amarinder Singh-led Congress government in the past few months.
He said both these parties were "bereft" of any concrete agenda against the state government, due to which they were issuing "irrational" statements against it.

Bittu said instead of criticising the government for the sake of criticism, both these parties must allow the state government to perform for the well-being of the people.
The MP assailed both the SAD and AAP for creating "undemocratic hindrances" in smooth functioning of the state government.
He said the attempt of the AAP leadership to gherao the chief minister's residence was nothing more than a "cheap political gimmick to get media attention".
Likewise, Bittu said, the Akali leadership was issuing "baseless" statements just to mark their presence in the political arena of the state.
He added the Congress would hold a conference on the occasion of Chhapar Mela which is held in Ludhiana district's Chhapar village every September.
