Sukhbir Badal trains guns on Navjot Sidhu, Bhagwant Mann; says Punjab needs a CM with vision, not one who only cracks jokes

SAD president Sukhbir Singh Badal on Wednesday said Punjab needed a CM who could present a vision for its welfare and prosperity, and not the one who could only crack jokes.

Sukhbir, who was here, said this while targeting Punjab Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu and AAP’s Punjab president Bhagwant Mann.

He said he had rightly declared Sidhu as a “misguided missile” which could explode anytime anywhere to cause destruction whereas Mann lacked the calibre to head the state

“Sidhu would end up destroying the Congress. Today, their key leaders are quitting the party only due to Sidhu. Kejriwal has ambition to be the CM of Punjab. It is written on the wall, ‘ek mauka Kejriwal nu’. This ‘mauka’ could be for the CM’s position only, what else. I have observed that AAP has disrespected its state chief umpteen times. Kejriwal issues statements in the presence of Mann that a ‘changa banda’ (good man) would be there for the CM’s post. It seems he doesn’t consider Mann for it. Anyone else in Mann’s place would have quit by now,” he said.

He said the SAD-BSP is a regional outfit that would give a tough fight to the Congress, BJP and AAP.
