Malout, January 18

Punjab Congress president Capt Amarinder Singh on Wednesday took his battle against the Chief Minister to his home turf of Lambi with the filing of nomination papers and the promise to cook Parkash Singh Badal’s goose in his own backyard.

Launching what he has described as the “grandfather of all battles”, Amarinder, who went to the Badal stronghold of Lambi in a massive procession after filing his nomination at Malout, said he had vowed to wipe out Badal from Punjab’s political scene and had come to Lambi to teach him a lesson for life.

Accompanied by cheering crowds and amidst the boisterous cacophony of drums, Amarinder said he would teach Badal a lesson for all the “atrocities” unleashed on the people of the state in the past 10 years, and set an example for all future chief ministers.

With people lined up on the entire stretch from Malout to Lambi cheering him on, an aggressive Amarinder, who is fighting his last election, declared that neither Parkash Singh Badal nor his kin would be spared for their “wrongdoings”.
