Congress terms it political vendetta

Special Correspondent

NEW DELHI: The Congress has said the decision to terminate the membership of the former Chief Minister, Amarinder Singh, from the State Legislature was a case of “political vendetta.”

While emphasising that the party was not commenting on the proceedings of the Assembly, AICC general secretary Margaret Alva, in charge of party affairs in the State, said the move by the Shiromani Akali Dal was to harass the Opposition.

She said that as had been seen in the past the more the Opposition was harassed the more sympathy it got from people.

Hundreds of party workers, especially in rural areas, were being put behind bars under false cases, Mrs Alva alleged.
