Navjot Sidhu accepts Punjab defeat, says 'voice of people is voice of God'

| @indiablooms | Mar 10, 2022, at 06:19 pm

Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Navjot Singh Sidhu, who was instrumental in appointing his trusted man Charanjit Singh Channi as the Chief Minister last year, has accepted his party's crushing defeat in the hands of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in the northern state which went to polls last month.

In a tweet, Sidhu said, "The voice of the people is the voice of God …. Humbly accept the mandate of the people of Punjab …. Congratulations to Aap !!!"

As per the latest trends, the AAP is leading in 90 of 117 seats while the Congress is lagging behind with mere 18.

The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) are leading in six and two seats respectively.
