A day after Prashant Kishor reportedly met Punjab Congress MLAs to deliberate on an election technique for upcoming meeting polls in Punjab, that are due early subsequent 12 months in 2022, the Opposition events on Thursday took a dig at Congress authorities led by Chief Minister Amarinder Singh.
Mr. Kishor, a poll-strategist, who had lately joined Capt. Singh as his principal advisor, on March 24 held a assembly with first time Congress legislators to take suggestions surrounding numerous political points of their constituencies.
Former Minister and senior Shiromani Akali Dal chief Daljit Singh Cheema asserted that the function of Congress president within the State has been ‘outsourced’ and therefore incumbent president Sunil Jakhar ought to step down. The BJP State chief Ashwani Sharma termed the hiring of Mr. Kishor by the Congress as a signal of ‘nervousness’ within the run as much as the Assembly polls.
“The Punjab Chief Minister has outsourced the job of party president to his new advisor PK. He is holding meetings with elected MLAs of Congress party and formulating election strategy. It will be better for Sunil Jakhar to step down to uphold the dignity of the post of party President,” mentioned Mr. Daljit Singh.
‘Nervous, desperate’
Mr. Sharma mentioned by bringing in Mr. Kishor, the ruling Congress celebration has admitted that the celebration is “nervous and desperate” to face the upcoming Assembly elections.
“The Congress government in the last four years has miserably failed on all fronts and has hired Mr. Kishor to bail it out of the mess it has created by non-governance in the State,” mentioned Mr. Sharma.
