The newly appointed Congress Legislative Party Leader Sunil Jakhar is willing to extend all cooperation to the SAD-BJP alliance as long as it is in the interest of Punjab.
Promising to lead a vigilant and constructive Opposition, Jakhar has said that he will go all out to help the ruling alliance take Punjab forward, but the Congress will thwart all attempts to benefit some at the cost of the state.
Spelling out his agenda as Leader of the Opposition, he said he was grateful to Congress president Sonia Gandhi for bestowing trust in him and he would go all out to live up to this responsibility. “The Congress needs to do some introspection and look at the reasons for the party’s defeat despite securing more votes in terms of percentage,” he said.
