Mrs Gurdeep Kaur is joining the Congress because of deep disillusionment with the Akali’s. Mrs Gurdeep Kaur says “only the immediate Badal family have a say. Senior ministers, ministers, councilors and workers have no say. This is no way to progress.”
Mrs Gurdeep Kaur went on to say “I had a heavy heart the day the Akali’s stood against Prime Minister Singh at the trust vote in July. I do not wish to see Dr Singh unseated at these elections, hence am putting my support behind him and Congress and hope others will too. I find the policies of Congress and Dr Manmohan Singh have more substance and also that I can better achieve the objectives of my Ward by working with them”.
