Gen hits back at capt

PNS

Hitting back at Punjab Congress chief Capt Amarinder Singh, former Army Chief General (retd) JJ Singh on Tuesday said that the former chief minister has no right to judge a person who has been decorated in every rank.

“He has no authority to judge me. I’ve been decorated in every rank. I think he has no idea, he should read my autobiography. And then he will know what I am talking about,” he said.

General Singh, who is the SAD-BJP candidate from Patiala, dubbed Capt Amarinder as a ‘gumshuda’ leader saying that his political career is going to end very soon.

“A Captain is a Captain and a General is a General, how can he compete and compare with me…I am using the strategy which he cannot match. If he can match, let him come on the ground. I challenge him to come and walk with me,” he said, adding that the Congress leader would lose from both Patiala and lambi in the Assembly polls.

“He will get tired. I am working 18 hours a day; he cannot even work more than six hours a day. He needs rest...My roots are here and he says I have nothing to do with Patiala. I think he knows nothing,” said General Singh.
