Why CM not visiting Patiala: Bir Devinder

Patiala: Former Deputy Speaker Bir Devinder Singh said on Sunday that Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh owed an explanation to the people of Patiala for his prolonged absence from his constituency. “Amarinder has created a record of sorts by wilfully staying away from the people who elected him three months ago,” said Bir Devinder. The Punjab Congress dismissed Bir Devinder Singh’s tirade against the Chief Minister as a “cheap publicity stunt and a sign of frustration after he was expelled for anti-party activities”. Party leaders Tript Rajinder Singh Bajwa, Sukhjinder Randhawa, Harpratap Ajnala and Kewal Singh Dhillon termed the former Dy Speaker an “unprincipled turncoat, who had lost all standing in Punjab”. “Amarinder had spent the past three months ensuring clean governance and fulfilling his promises to the people of the state, including Patiala,” they said.
