Suspended Congress leader Dr Navjot Kaur Sidhu on Saturday announced her decision to quit the party. She took to ‘X’, saying that “she had left the party as no promising leader was being heard”.

Dr Sidhu’s announcement came a day ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Dera Ballan in Jalandhar.

Hitting out at Amrinder Raja Warring, Dr Sidhu alleged that the PPCC chief was incapable and corrupt. She accused Warring of colluding with Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to destroy the party.

Meanwhile, in a separate tweet, Dr Sidhu praised the Prime Minister.

Now, all eyes are on Dr Sidhu’s husband and former PPCC chief Navjot Singh Sidhu who has been keeping away from active politics. In a cryptic post on “X”, the cricketer-turned-politician said, “Why is it that when head of our country comes to give something to our state, all political thieves come together at one platform to disrupt his home coming. We should be very clear that he has earned that position and power to give us something great for our state. Be grateful.”

Dr Navjot Sidhu was suspended from the primary membership of the party after the former MLA made a sensational claim that “a briefcase full of Rs 500 crore” was required to become Chief Minister in the state, something she said her husband could not pay. She also claimed that five CM aspirants in the Congress were pulling down the party.

Though no official reason had been cited in the suspension letter signed by PPCC chief Warring, sources said the party had taken a serious view of her utterances against Punjab Congress leaders who were busy with the zila parishad and panchayat samiti elections.

Dr Sidhu, in her post, said, “Raja Warring, the most horrific, incapable, corrupt president ever. You saved yourself from jail by co partnering with CM to destroy Congress. You had a suspension letter ready for me but what about nearly 12 senior Congress leaders who were busy in working with MAJITHIA to harm NAVJOT. And you rewarded all of them with big posts for defeating NAVJOT. I have enough proofs to destroy you, but I am not interested because I myself have quit Congress where no promising leader is heard. You planted people on my seat with an intention to defeat my seat. Where is your action against senior leaders like ASHU, CHANNI, BHATTAL ji, Dr Gandhi ji and many more who have openly challenged you and your party?? You have just become a laughingstock, and people are enjoying your reels. Stop disrespecting Congress leaders who love Navjot. You are busier in destroying the party rather than making it win. Shame on you for not being sincere with your own party which is your mother party. You have done enough damage.”
