We will not let Sidhu win – Capt.
Amarinder Singh’s new party PLC (Punjab Lok Congress) is contesting the February 20 assembly elections in Punjab in alliance with the Bharatiya Janata Party and Shiromani Akali Dal (United). When asked whether you had said that you would contest against Sidhu, the 79-year-old leader of the then Patiala royal family said, “I had said we will not let Sidhu win as he is a totally incompetent man.” .
‘There is no such thing as a mind’
“When the Congress president asked about how Sidhu was about five years ago, I had said that this man is absolutely not fit to be a member of the Congress party. Despite this, she (Mrs. Gandhi) had inducted Sidhu into the party.
Amarinder Singh further said, “From day one I have said that this man does not have a brain. I told all this to the Congress President when he asked me how Sidhu would prove beneficial for the party.
Replying to another question, Amarinder said that during his four-and-a-half year rule as Chief Minister in the second term, he had fulfilled 92 per cent of the election promises. He said, “You tell me, what have I done wrong? If he had asked me to resign earlier, I would have resigned only then. In September 2021, he asked me to resign earlier in the day and I had quit by evening.” He also spoke about the alleged MeToo case against Channi. He said that the complainant woman officer had backed down.
