Ask Amarinder, and nothing seems to have changed, even though the Akali Dal’s committee was set up with Bhattal’s help. He is till banking on the revenge theory.
Describing his expulsion as the “darkest day” in the history of democracy in Punjab, Singh said, “Ever since the SAD-BJP alliance formed the Government, repeated attempts have been made to send me to jail. They have had no success. In many cases the high court and the Supreme Court have “established political vendetta”.
“There’s no vendetta,” said Akali Dal general secretary Mahesh Inder Singh Grewal, adding that it would be best for the Congress to “lick its wounds” until the polls.
