Don’t miss: Congress trying to poach, but Sidhu out of boundsPunjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC) chief Captain Amarinder Singh had welcomed Navjot Singh Sidhu to join the Congress party, on Tuesday. Wishing Navjot Singh Sidhu, who resigned as Rajya Sabha member, a good luck and successful innings ahead, Congress leader Manpreet Singh Badal said that Sidhu is welcome to join the party but if he joins any other party, Congress is not afraid of him. Manpreet Badal said that after coming to power, the main aim of congress will be to eradicate corruption, poverty, illiteracy, unemployment, and drug addiction from the state. Manpreet and Congress leaders, Vijay Inder Singla and Amrinder Singh Raja Warring, were here to preside over a function, ‘Show of Strength,’organised by former minister Darshan Singh Brar in Baghapurana constituency, on Thursday. “If you make him an MLA, he can be the minister in state cabinet after Congress comes to power,” said Raja Warring.
