Jalandhar, August 30, 2022: Former State President BJP Punjab and Former Minister Punjab Manoranjan Kalia, in a press statement condemned AAP Government Punjab for selecting the wrong nomenclature for Punjab Sports Mega event inaugurated by Bhagwant Singh Mann, Chief Minister, Punjab on August 29.
He said AAP Government named the said Mega Sports event as “Khedan Vatan Punjab Diyan”. The translation of word “Vatan” in English means “Country” or “Nation”. It smacks of mischievousness of the mind who suggested incorporating the said word “Vatan” in the nomenclature and also who accepted the proposal in the AAP Government that Punjab is not a State in India but an Independent Country. Instead of inserting word “Vatan” in the nomenclature of Sports event, it should have been “Khedan Pradesh Punjab Diyan”. The said nomenclature gives a wrong message to the youth.
Kalia asked Bhagwant Singh Mann to take note of this serious issue and amend the nomenclature of Mega Sports event as “Khedan Pradesh Punjab Diyan” lest his silence amounts to acquiescence in the same way his silence connotes acquiescence on the statement of Gurpatwant Singh Pannu of financing the AAP Admi Party in Punjab Elections 2022 by Sikhs For Justice (SFJ).
