SAD-BJP core group to meet at Jalandhar

CHANDIGARH: The Akali Dal and the BJP will hold a joint meeting of its core groups on June 3 to evolve a joint strategy to corner the Congress-led Punjab government. Union Minister Vijay Sampla met SAD president Sukhbir Singh Badal, and both the leaders said the ruling government had failed miserably to maintain law and order. Badal said the meeting would also derive a party programme to force the new government to fulfil the promises made to the people, including complete loan waiver and a job per family in the state.
