Former Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh today congratulated Sunil Jakhar for joining the Bharatiya Janata Party remarking, “right man in the right party”. He said, more leaders were likely to desert the sinking ship in the coming days.
In a statement issued here today, Capt Amarinder said, the exodus from the Congress will continue and the party is headed for an imminent doom. “Honest and upright leaders like him (Sunil) cannot breathe in the Congress anymore”, he said, adding, “that space (the Congress party) has grown too stifling and too suffocating”.
The former CM recalled how within the span of less than a year, the Congress party had completely collapsed in Punjab due to one wrong decision. “I was the Chief Minister, while Sunil was the PCC president and everything was going on so well and we were headed for repeating the government just less than a year ago”, he said, while adding, “and one wrong decision by the leadership and that proved suicidal for the party that it is now staring at its own doom in Punjab as elsewhere in the country”.
