Punjab Deputy Chief Minister and SAD president Sukhbir Badal on Friday said that by fielding a two-time loser Captain Amarinder Singh to lead the party in Punjab, the Congress has already admitted that it is no longer in the game in the State assembly elections.
“He has already created a record by ensuring back-to-back defeats for Congress in Punjab. Now, he is set to create a hat-trick of defeats. He is a man of history and wants to be remembered for these records,” he said.
Sukhbir added, “We welcome a loudmouth rather than a man of action at the helm of Congress affairs.” “like in the last two assembly elections, Capt Amarinder Singh will talk big, use choicest abuses against us and then start blaming everybody else in Punjab Congress for the inevitable defeat in the elections and disappear into cooler climes to enjoy retirement,” he added.
