In a jolt to Aam Aadmi Party, its MLA Jagtar Singh Jagga switched sides to the Congress camp during the Punjab Vidha Sabha session on Thursday.
AAP MLA Jagtar Singh Jagga jumped sides in the midst of the speech by Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi. Joining the Congress camp, he said he accepts a common man like Channi as his CM.
High drama prevailed in the House as AAP is now left with just nine legislators, besides rebel MLA Kanwar Sandhu.
AAP leader Aman Arora accused Speaker Rana K P Singh of promoting defection. “On a day you are bringing an anti-defection law, it is shocking you and the Congress are promoting defection,” he said.
