Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Capt Amarinder Singh today appealed to all party workers contesting against official candidates in the municipal corporation elections in Ludhiana, Patiala, Jalandhar and Amritsar to withdraw or lest strict action would be taken against them.
Amarinder, in a statement, has asked all the rebels to withdraw by Monday, failing which they would be expelled from the party for a period of six years.
Maintaining that the rebels would not gain anything by standing against official candidates, he said it would only provide undue advantage to the Akali-BJP alliance.
He said this was the time for the party rank and file to unite and romp home all the four municipal corporations.
The PCC chief said the candidates were selected after thorough discussions and deliberations and that it was not possible to give seat to every applicant.
