"Today every business in Punjab is under the control of the mafia. Traders are being forced to live on the grace of the mafia. Our small traders are facing the biggest problem because of this" he added. 

Slamming the current government of Punjab, Congress Modi said "Entire Punjab full of so many possibilities, but industries are leaving from here. No one is ready to come here early because of the policies of the Congress government. Only a double-engine government can change these situations."

Meanwhile, the elections will be held to elect 117 members of the Legislative Assembly in Punjab. This year the main competition will be between two ruling parties  Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP). The Punjab election was going to be held on a single-phase on February 14 but now it changed to 20th February.
