Chandigarh, Sept. 21 -- Leader of Opposition in the Punjab assembly, Partap Singh Bajwa, on Saturday hit out at the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government, accusing it of orchestrating a systematic sell-off of the state's assets to mask its financial mismanagement.

This comes after a high-powered committee shortlisted five government properties to be auctioned under the optimum use of vacant government land (OUVGL) scheme. The properties to go under the hammer include the Printing Press Colony on eight acres in Patiala, a printing press site on 10 acres in Patiala, a veterinary hospital land on 2.27 acres in Barewal Awana, Ludhiana, a sugar mill on 89 acres in Sheron, Tarn Taran, and the PWD guest house on 1.75 acres in Gurdaspur.
