PCC chief picks Mohd Mustafa as strategic adviser
Chandigarh, August 19
Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president Navjot Singh Sidhu has appointed former DGP Mohd Mustafa as his principal strategic adviser. He has accepted the post.
Sidhu had earlier appointed Mustafa as his political adviser, but the latter had declined to accept any political post. Sidhu reportedly had a two-hour meeting with Mustafa at the latter’s residence today. Mustafa’s wife Razia Sultana is a Cabinet minister. However, Mustafa was unhappy at not being included in the panel of officers for the post of Punjab DGP. He had aired his disappointment over the issue. Sources said Sidhu called on Mustafa and convinced him to take up the post for the “betterment of the state”. — TNS
