Sidhu on Wednesday reached the Civil Aviation Office of Punjab, where he filed an application under the Right to Information Act in which he sought information as to how much the Punjab government has spent on hiring private jets in the last one and a half years. He also alleged that the Punjab government hires private jets for the Aam Aadmi Party’s campaign in other states and helicopters were also used for party-specific work.

He said, “During the rule of this government, the state has incurred another debt of Rs 50 thousand crores. Punjab government is providing free electricity to the public but it is being given by mortgaging Punjab State Power Corporation Limited.
