Chandigarh : Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC) president Capt Amarinder Singh today rubbished Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s charges against him over the circulation of posters that have a picture of the latter with that of Jarnail Singh Bhindrawale. “Given the fact that he (Kejriwal) is a congenital and compulsive liar, I am not surprised over his backing out himself and blaming me for what his party has done,” Amarinder alleged in a statement issued here.
“It is a classic case of running with the hare and hunting with the hounds,” the former Chief Minister alleged, adding, “First, they (AAP leaders) circulated posters asking people to celebrate Bhindrawale’s birthday and when it boomeranged on them, Kejriwal tried to back out in his characteristic fugitive manner he is well known for.”
Kejriwal had yesterday rejected Amarinder’s allegation that AAP had nexus with Khalistanis.
Capt today dared AAP to lodge an FIR and get the matter investigated. “We will not allow them to play the double game of stealthily playing the extremist agenda and publicly denying it later,” he said.
The PPCC president questioned Kejriwal if his party was really not behind these posters, why AAP Punjab convenor Sucha Singh Chhotepur had backed out from filing a complaint.
