Muktsar, June 10

IYC chief and Gidderbaha MLA Amrinder Singh Raja Warring today virtually opened a front against PCC chief Capt Amarinder by saying the party workers were unhappy for the past 21 years.

Addressing workers here regarding the scheduled protest on June 18 in Lambi Assembly segment against the multi-crore recruitment scam, he said, “It has been 21 years since the workers experienced happiness (Nazara ni liya). They are suffering since 1995. The last time they were happy was during the tenure of the late CM Beant Singh. I was kid then but I remember everything,” he added.

Notably, he did not mention even a single word in his speech about the five-year rule of the Congress government under the leadership of Amarinder from 2002-07.

He said, “I respect Capt Amarinder Singh and had introduced a number of schemes for farmers and saved our river waters, but we could not give a befitting reply to the Akalis for their highhandedness in that period.”
