Congress Is In Poor Shape Because Of Gandhis Says Natwar Singh Over Punjab Political Crisis
Natwar Singh targeted Rahul Gandhi saying who doesn`t even hold any designation, is calling the shots
Mumbai: Natwar Singh, Congress veteran and former Union minister on Thursday, criticised the top brass after Amarinder Singh stepped down from his post of Punjab Chief Minister & alleged that Gandhi’s are largely responsible for the mess.
In an interview with News18, Natwar Singh said the party is in “very poor shape”. He said that the Congress party which Amarinder Singh joined is very different from the Congress party of today.
“It’s (the party) in very poor shape. I don’t know whether he (Amarinder Singh) will leave the Congress, but the fact of the matter is that at one point, Congress was one of the greatest democratic parties in the world. Today, it’s in a pathetic state,” Natwar Singh told the same channel.
Singh also said that Amarinder Singh had served the Congress for so many years and been in politics for 52 years, and in place of that they brought someone like Navjot Singh Sidhu.
Singh further said, “It’s not alright at all, there are three people responsible (Sonia, Priyanka, Rahul), one of them is Rahul Gandhi who doesn’t even hold any designation, and he is calling the shots.”
In another interview to India Today, the veteran leader said that he is doubtful if Charanjit Singh Channi’s government will last and since Punjab is a border state, it’s a risky business.
