Janjivan Bureau / Chandigarh : Ahead of the Congress high command’s move to announce a peace formula for the Punjab Congress, including adjustment of Navjot Singh Sidhu, the cricketer-turned-politician by his tweet on the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) acknowledging his vision for Punjab has left leaders in the Congress baffled.
A senior party leader said, “As there are reports of appointing Sidhu as the PPCC chief amid resistance from the Chief Minister, the subtle tweet on AAP can be interpreted in different ways.”
AAP state president Bhagwant Mann had challenged Sidhu to raise the issue of corporates that are running two private thermal plants. Mann said Sidhu, who tweeted on PPAs, should also respond to his challenge.
To this, Sidhu tweeted, “Our opposition AAP has always recognised my vision & work for Punjab. Be it Before 2017 – Beadbi, Drugs, Farmers Issues, Corruption & Power Crisis faced by People of Punjab raised by me or today as I present “Punjab Model” it is clear they know – who is really fighting for Punjab.”
In another tweet, Sidhu said “The Opposition dares to question me, yet they can’t escape my Pro-People Agenda…This means they have resigned to their fate.”
