Fatehgarh Sahib, July 10
Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Amarinder Singh on Sunday rejected Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Sukhpal Khaira's charges that Congress used pictures of the Golden Temple on its posters.
"Whole of Punjab and the Punjabi community world over knows my commitment and the credentials too well to be questioned by someone like Khaira," he said.
"Khaira was trying to be more loyal than the king without realising that the Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, whom he was trying to please, will just use and throw him like a paper napkin," he said here after attending a 'bhog' ceremony.
He accused Kejriwal of having a "congenital habit of using and throwing away" people, like he did with Anna Hazare, Prashant Bhushan, Yogendra Yadav, and "many others".
AAP spokesman Sukhpal Singh Khaira on Saturday accused the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) and the Congress of having used photos of the Golden Temple with party symbols on their posters.
Amarinder Singh also dismissed reports of having differences witth party's Chief Spokesman and senior leader Sunil Jakhar.
"I am completely with him on the issue of SYL," he said. — PTI
