According to the report, while tweeting on Wednesday, he said, what happened today is not acceptable. It is against Punjab. A safe passage should have been ensured for the Prime Minister of India to address the BJP’s political rally in Ferozepur.
Congress’ campaign committee chief Sunil Kumar Jakhar has gone on a foreign tour in Punjab even as the state goes to polls in a few weeks and the party is yet to agree on finalizing the candidates. A source close to the party’s former state president said. Jakhar left the country on Wednesday after attending the screening committee meeting in Delhi. Sources close to him also said that he chose to go abroad as meetings of the Congress Central Election Committee would anyway be held virtual due to the third wave of the pandemic.
According to the Indian Express report, a Congress leader expressed concern about the campaign chief’s absence, he said, when the party’s state president Navjot Singh Sidhu has apparently been at loggerheads with Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi. There is a competition among all the parties for the chief minister’s chair. This will be difficult with the campaign committee chief being away. Even if the cases of Kovid are increasing, the chief should remain on the ground. The physical absence of a leader will surely badly affect the morale of the workers.
No consensus yet on 117 candidates
He further said, ‘The Screening Committee meetings are also to be held as there is no consensus on 117 candidates yet. This will be a long lasting task ahead. Jakhar had hit out at his own party’s government as Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s rally had to be canceled due to farmers’ protests on his way.
Sunil Jakhar’s tweet
According to the report, while tweeting on Wednesday, he said, what happened today is not acceptable. It is against Punjab. A safe passage should have been ensured for the Prime Minister of India to address the BJP’s political rally in Ferozepur. This is how democracy works. And two days after the Congress decided not to hold any rallies in the poll-bound states in view of the pandemic, Sidhu is holding a rally in Barnala on Thursday. His media team said that he would reach there in a short time and despite the bad weather there would be a huge crowd of people.
