What changed in 4 days, Shiromani Akali Dal asks Punjab deputy CM Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa

CHANDIGARH: Shiromani Akali Dal on Wednesday asked Punjab deputy CM Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa to prove his sincerity on charges made against Capt Amarinder Singh by breaking all ties with the Congress high command, especially Gandhi family.

It said the party and Gandhis had imposed Amarinder on Punjab and the Congress. “Even you have a lot of explaining to do for remaining his most-trusted sidekick these years, especially as you were begging for a meeting with him only four days ago which he refused. Please share what happened in these four days to reveal Amarinder’s anti-national and traitorous character,” said SAD leader Maheshinder Singh Grewal. He added Randhawa was the home minister now.

“If you believe that as chief minister of Punjab, Amarinder was a traitor and was indulging in anti-national activities through proximity with Aroosa Alam, a Pakistani ISI agent, then act against him and book him on charges of conspiring against the country. You should also explain why you kept spending long evenings and nights in the company of Amarinder and Aroosa in private parties which were not even a part of your official duties,” Grewal added. “Even today, you are being advised by the same Capt Sandeep Sandhu, who was the main adviser of Captain Amaridner Singh. Isn’t that a strange coincidence? Or did you forget to hide your association with Amarinder’s right hand man even today?” he said.
