Chandigarh: Known for his trademark witty one-liners, Punjab minister Navjot Singh Sidhu will be one of the star campaigners for the Congress in the Lok Sabha poll hustings, a senior party leader said. The 55-year-old Punjab tourism and cultural affairs minister who hogged the headlines for his push for the Kartarpur corridor between India and Pakistan, has been the “star voter-catcher” for the Congress. “Sidhu is one of the star campaigners for the Congress across the country. He has a way of connecting with the audience and has campaign value,” the party’s Punjab affairs in-charge Asha Kumari said. PTI
