Capt Amarinder Singh all set to launch new party

October 05, 2015 14:29

Captain Amarinder Singh is all set to launch a state party by December, after he returns from London.

He has deliberated with his close friends about the prospects for a new political outfit in Punjab, and many have welcomed his initiative.

If Captain Amarinder Singh floats something like a Capt Amarinder Singh Congress, it will be a clear snub to Rahul Gandhi.

Once that happens the Congress will be unable to return to power in Punjab and the state will join the long list of places where a Congress revival is impossible -- like in Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Tamil Nadu, Madhya Pradesh etc.
