Bathinda, January 4
Former CM and Punjab Lok Congress leader Capt Amarinder Singh today said the alliance with the BJP and the SAD (Sanyukt) was in the national and state’s interest.
Addressing a public meeting after inducting Congress leader Raj Nambardar into the party here, Capt Amarinder said Punjab faced multiple challenges, particularly on security and economic front. “I found the BJP as the only party that can take care of both things,” he said, adding he was glad to welcome PM Modi in Punjab tomorrow.
He said having known Modi for a long time, he knew he was concerned about Punjab. While talking to the media, Amarinder lashed out at Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal and state Congress chief Navjot Sidhu for taking people for a ride by making promises which they could not fulfil. — TNS
