In an unusual display of bonhomie, the Punjab Youth Congress has appreciated a tweet by SAD president Sukhbir Singh Badal to put politics on hold during the fight against Covid-19.

Badal had tweeted: “I earnestly request everyone, in and outside our party, to put politics on hold at this critical hour & focus on saving fellow human beings. There is no Congress, no SAD, or AAP, BJP or Communist at this time. There are just fellow human beings.”

The Youth Congress welcomed the tweet, saying: “We have a huge difference of opinion on the lines of ideology with you, but this statement is the need of hour. We appreciate your concern sir, hope you will follow this in true spirit. We all are in this together. Each one, save one.”
