Saini criticised the Punjab government's recent actions as "low-level politics" timed to coincide with upcoming elections, accusing them of using the dispute to divert attention from their lack of substantive public service. Directly addressing Mann, Saini advised him to utilise his remaining term in office constructively and avoid inciting farmers for political gain. He contrasted the Aam Aadmi Party's (AAP) current stance with their previous promises in Delhi, where he alleged, they were ultimately rejected by the electorate.

Saini emphasised the fraternal relationship between Haryana and Punjab, urging the AAP government not to create unnecessary divisions for political gain. He expressed concern over the potential waste of rainwater flowing towards Pakistan, suggesting that a collaborative approach would be more beneficial. He also addressed the recent changes within the BBMB, dismissing them as routine administrative transfers....
