Dhuri : Former Chief Minister and senior Congress leader Rajinder Kaur Bhattal has flayed Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal for commenting against Congress president Sonia Gandhi during an election rally here.
Sukhbir had reportedly said that Sonia could not even tell which crop was wheat and which was paddy. Bhattal said Sukhbir’s remarks were impertinent and a cover-up for his (Sukhbir’s) frustration on the land acquisition Bill.
She said Sukhbir’s assertion that Sonia could not differentiate between wheat and paddy crops was ridiculous. Sukhbir’s remarks were a result of his hidden disappointment as the SAD had failed to convince Prime Minister Narendra Modi to bring about necessary changes in the land acquisition Bill, she said.
