New Delhi: The ongoing struggle between the factions of the Minister of Punjab Amarinder Singh and the President of the Navjot State Congress Singh Sidhu appeared to be a gloomy reminder of the dispute that was witnessed by the 1997 Assembly Party.
The difference in opinion at the Punjab Congress in 1996 was at its peak during the minister Main Harcharan Singh Brar.
The selection of the assembly was held on February 7, 1997.
The party’s state unit has been scheduled to launch its campaign on November 20, 1996.
However, on November 20, 1996 itself, which is less than three months coming to the election of the Assembly, the High Command Congress replaces Harcharan Singh Brar with Rajinder Kaur Bhattal – The first and only minister of Punjab minister who remained in the seat was only 82 days, a short term of cm in the state.
Like against Brar, Bhattal is believed to be an aggressive leader who has adopted a difficult attitude towards Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD).
Amarinder Singh and Sidhu have similarities with their respective brar and bhattal.
However, the congress was very sad in the 1997 assembly election.
Of the total 117 seats in the Assembly, the party opposed 105 seats but also won on 14 seats.
On the other hand, sad 75 won and then the BJP alliance partner won on 18 seats.
Together they formed the government with Parkash Singh Badal as cm.
The SAD-BJP government lasts for five full years.
Even in the 1996 Sabha Lok selection, Congress only won two of the 13 seats contested.
This is probably the moments of Deja Vu for the Punjab Congress.
It witnessed the same situation now since Sidhu took Cudgels against Amarinder Singh.
With his Goodwill with Nehru-Gandhis, Sidhu received a meeting held to conduct a state government review under Amarinder Singh.
The meeting examined the works of the promise of Manifesto 2017 Members 2017.
Sidhu also had a way in designated as President of the Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC).
Congress leaders may expect that it will end bitter disputes between him and Amarinder Singh.
This week has blazed.
The latest triggers are some controversial comments made about Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan and former Prime Minister of Indira Gandhi by two advisors – Malwinder Singh Mali and Dr.
Pyare Lal Garg – from Sidhu.
While Garg questioned the criticism of Punjab Amarinder Singh against Pakistan, Mali issued a controversial comment on Kashmir.
Mali also posted an unpleasant poster from Indira Gandhi on social media.
The two advisors were slammed by many leaders of Congress, including Amarinder Singh and Lok Sabha MP Manish Tewari.
After this, Sidhu called his advisor.
In addition, senior leaders who are responsible for PPCC Harish care hinting that actions will be taken against two advisors whether the accusations against them are proven true.
In retaliation, four ministers and 26 mlash were looking for Ouster Amarinder Singh as cm.
On the other hand, other factions from MLA promised their support to CM.
The delegation of several ministers of Punjab and Mlaas met his Rawab in Dehradun on Wednesday to suppress the request of the removal of Amarinder Singh as cm.
The request was almost six months before the State Assembly election.
After fulfilling the delegation of the Minister and MLA, Harish Rawat said the party would oppose the election of the 2022 Final Assembly under the leadership of Amarinder Singh.
Apart from the harisas for cleaning the air that there will be no change in leadership, the dissident delegation is likely to meet the high command to find the removal of Amarinder Singh from his post.
The development seems to be a repetition of events that have taken place at the Punjab Congress ahead of the 1997 state assemblies as well.
Why is the Moment of Deja Vu for the Punjab Congress
