Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh targeted ” cricketer-turned-politician Sidhu for damaging the Congress with his “irresponsible actions” just before polls.
State Health Minister Brahm Mohindra also slammed Sidhu and said he, along with other cabinet colleagues, would write to the Congress high-command to “restrain Sidhu from damaging the party further”.
Hitting out at Sidhu, the chief minister said, “If he was a real Congressman, he should have chosen a better time to air his grievances, instead of just ahead of voting in Punjab.”
“He is harming the party with such irresponsible actions. It is not his election but that of the entire Congress’s,” he added.
“Perhaps he is ambitious and wants to be the chief minister,” Singh said.
