The formation of a cabinet sub-committee to combat drugs in Punjab by the AAP government has been described as a mere political gimmick by BJP National General Secretary Tarun Chugh. Chugh questioned the delay in addressing the issue and criticized the cabinet ministers for performing tasks that should be done by the police. He also suggested conducting a dope test on the cabinet committee members and Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to verify their sincerity. Chugh believes that this move by the AAP government is just another attempt to squander taxpayers' money on misleading advertisements, similar to their tactics in the past.
