What are the other issues?
(i) There has been resentment against the Chief Minister not taking action against Badals in the police firing after the Bargari sacrilege incident.
(ii) The party leadership has been rueing that there is a perception gaining ground that the CM had a quid pro quo with the former chief minister’s family.
(iii) Another major issue is the report of STF on drugs not being made public. It was submitted to the High Court by the STF chief three years ago in an envelope. The envelope has not been opened yet.
(iv) The leaders hold the legal department responsible for not pursuing the case properly as the government wanted to protect some leader of the SAD named in the drug racket.
(v) There are other issues of not cancelling the controversial Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) that end up making power very expensive in the state.
(vi) The leaders have also been accusing the chief minister of inaccessibility.
What is the row about dossiers on party colleagues by the CM?
(i) There have been reports about the CM taking dossiers on over two dozen MLAs to the committee.
(ii) The dossiers expose the alleged involvement of his party colleagues in sand mining business, liquor trade, transport business and land grab cases.
(iii) While Captain Amarinder had indicated in a Vidhan Sabha session that he had reports on all his party legislators...
What is the way forward for Congress?
(i) After the Punjab Congress raised the issues publicly, the chief minister’s camp has won back a few leaders.
(ii) A number of Lok Sabha MPs have extended their support.
(iii) After the inaccessibility allegation, the CM came out of his farm house and started meeting partymen at his official residence.
(iv) Navjot Sidhu, after having launched a tirade against the CM on his Twitter, has been keeping quiet lately.
(v) His aide and former hockey Olympian Pargat Singh has, however, hit out at the CM two days ago daring him to make public the dossiers.
The rebels have been saying they are waiting for Sonia Gandhi to act:
(i) The rebels have been saying they are waiting for Sonia Gandhi to act before they take further action. It remains to be seen how Gandhi will tackle the crisis, and whether Sidhu and other dissenters would be silenced or they will keep the heat on against the party in the run up to the Assembly election in state in early 2022” Extracts from: Updated: June 13, 2021 4:44:21 pm: Written by Kanchan Vasdev , Edited by Explained Desk | Chandigarh | The Indian EXPRESS
