Jalandhar, March 20

With still 72 days left for the Lok Sabha elections in Punjab, Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann is learnt to have had a good cooling off time at a hotel in Jalandhar since the last afternoon.

The CM came to Hotel Radisson around 2:30 pm on Tuesday and left almost 24 hours later on Wednesday. He just met Jalandhar MP Sushil Rinku on Tuesday. On Wednesday, he only met MP Balbir S Seechewal and Local Bodies Minister Balkar Singh that too, around 2 pm and left soon after.

“It seems that the CM was on a rest mode and was here only to relax before the election battle starts getting heated up. He could have easily spared an hour or two for a meeting with the MLAs and other senior party leaders, taken our feedback or passed us some directions regarding the election strategy,” said a senior leader.

A leader very close to him quipped, “How do you know that the CM was relaxing? He could have been using his phone for planning some strategies with his core team”.
