People at top wants weak CM: Navjot Singh Sidhu
Chandigarh: Not announcing the Chief Ministerial candidate in Punjab has irked party president Navjot Singh Sidhu, he sends the strong message to his party top brasses that “ people at the top” wants a weak Chief Minister who can dance their tunes.
Sidhu’s remarks come ahead of Rahul Gandhi visit to the state to reveal the party Chief Minister candidate.
Addressing his supporters, Mr. Sidhu said that” If a new Punjab has to be made, it is in the hands of the Chief Minister. You have to choose the Chief Minister this time. People at the top want a weak Chief Minister who can dance to their tunes. Do you want such a Chief Minister?"
Sidhu comment has aimed at Gandhis for not announcing his name for the CM post. Party high command is likely to announce incumbent Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi as CM face.
As speculation peaks, Mr Sidhu yesterday called off his public meetings and cleared out his campaign diary for a snap visit to the Vaishno Devi pilgrimage. Rahul Gandhi is likely to announce the name in Ludhiana on Sunday, NDTV reported.
