CHANDIGARH – A day after he resigned as Punjab Pradesh Congress chief, Navjot Singh Sidhu today questioned the appointment of the police chief, Advocate-General and “tainted” leaders, saying he was ready to make “any sacrifice” to uphold his principles and that his aim was to improve people’s lives and “to make a difference”.
Several party leaders, including ministers Pargat Singh, Amrinder Singh Raja Warring and Punjab Congress working president Pawan Goel, visited him at his residence in Patiala.
In a video clip, Sidhu said: “I have no grudge against anyone. My fight has been on issues and a pro-Punjab agenda.” Apparently referring to IPS Sahota, who has been given the additional charge of DGP, he said: “Today, I see a compromise on those issues.” Sahota was the head of an SIT formed in 2015 by then SAD government to probe sacrilege incidents. On APS Deol, he said: “My soul jitters when I see those who secured blanket bails, are advocate general (sic).”
