After having come under attack from Sukhbir Badal during election rallies in Dasuya, it was Punjab Congress Committee president Capt Amarinder Singh’s turn today to counter the Deputy Chief Minister.
While addressing rallies in Dasuya constituency, Amarinder was at his oratorical best as he targeted Sukhbir.
“Kaka tu kithe chala gaya si jadon Vidhan Sabha da session chal reha si. Garmee zyada lagee tan oh US bhajh gya. (Sukhbir where were you when the Vidhan Sabha session was on? You fled to the US after feeling the heat,” Amarinder retorted.
At an election rally two days ago, Sukhbir had targeted Amarinder: “Kithe gaya Raja. Oh tan kehnda si main Dasuya chhad ke nahi javanga. (Where is Capt Amarinder Singh? He had announced he would not leave Dasuya till the elections were over).”
The PCC president claimed that the Deputy Chief Minister flew to the US with his children as he could neither bear summer heat nor the heat of the Opposition legislators in the Vidhan Sabha. “We had raised important points for discussion in the House. Sensing that the SAD-BJP combine would be on the mat, Sukhbir thought it prudent to run away from reality,” he said.
Amarinder also hit out at the state government for “failing” to maintain the 321 tube-wells set up in the Kandi area during his tenure as Chief Minister. Among those present on the occasion were CLP leader Sunil Jakhar, Fatehjung Bajwa, Luv Kumar Goldy and Sundar Shyam Arora.
