Chandigarh, August 31
Punjab Congress chief Capt Amarinder Singh today termed the resignation of the daughter and son-in-law of late Jathedar Gurcharan Singh Tohra from the Akali Dal as the outcome of the destruction of the Akali legacy by Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal.
He alleged that the real and the true Akalis were feeling suffocated and were seeking a way out. He cautioned them not to make wrong choices.
Though the Tohra’s family members have joined AAP, negotiations were took place between with a section of former Akali ministers and some MLAs with the Congress earlier. “They were waiting for the right moment”, said a senior leader.
