Deeply hurt: Amarinder's resignation letter to Sonia

November 02, 2021 17:24

Former Punjab CM Captain Amarinder Singh resigns from the Congress party in a letter to Sonia Gandhi.

In his letter, the former Punjab CM writes, "Despite my profound reservations and over the unanimous advice of almost all the MPs from Punjab, you chose to appoint an acolyte of the Pakistani deep state Navjyot Singh Sindhu who had publicly hugged the Pakistan Army Chief Gen Bajwa and Prime Minister Imran Khan, as the President of the Punjab Congress Committee.

"Sidhu's only claim to fame was that he would abuse me and my govt. He was patronised by Rahul and Priyanka, while you chose to turn a blind eye to the shenanigans of this gentleman who was aided and abetted by Harish Rawat, perhaps the most dubious individual.

"I actually felt deeply hurt by your conduct and that of your children who I still deeply love as much as my own children, having known their father, since we were in school together since 1954, which is for 67 years now," he noted in the letter.
