CHANDIGARH – The People’s Party of Punjab suffered another major setback in the heartland of Malwa when Nidharak Singh Brar, one of its founding members, resigned from PPP and rejoined (bribed back) to the SAD in the presence of President Sukhbir Singh Badal.
Party President and Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal utilised the moment to appeal to all the original cadres to return to the parent party fold, rising above the personal and factional feuds.
Brar said he was forced to leave the PPP as the party cadre was totally disillusioned as there was a large gap between promises and action on the ground. He said he was shocked to see that the constitution had been tailor made to adjust near and dear ones in the ‘kitchen cabinet’ of the party.
Welcoming Brar and his supporters back in the party, Sukhbir said certain party workers who had left the party due to personal, factional or egoistic feuds should return to the party fold to strengthen the party at the grassroots level.
