Chandigarh: June 17:Sh. Rajwant Rai Sharma Secretary Punjab Pradesh Congress and Sh. Rajwant Singh General Secretary Panchayti Raj Department of Punjab Congress have criticized local leadership of Gidderbaha Congress for announcing boycott of the Civic polls there. Mr. Sharma expressed surprise on the move of Sh. Raghubir Singh Ex MLA who is also General Secretary of the Pradesh Congress , for running away from the battlefield when the Congress is facing the Akali vandalism courageously all over the State.
He said that boycotting the Municipal Elections by a close confident of Awaz-e-Punjab S. Jagmeet Singh Brar reminds of the running away from the battle-field by Capt. Amarinder Singh in the Corporation elections when he left the Party candidates lurching midway during the elections instead of facing the Akali goons with courage. This move has exposed the people who are hand in glove with Akali Dal.
They demanded from the Party High Command to take a bold stand about the leaders who boast of their following among the people and enjoy the plum positions in Party but run away when time comes for sacrificing comforts for the sake of the Party.
