Sidhu to Return if Congress Names CM Face
Navjot Singh Sidhu is a former politician and cricket player.
His wife, Navjot Kaur Sidhu, said he will come back to politics if the Congress party makes him their main candidate for the chief minister of Punjab.
She mentioned that they don't have money to give to any party but can make Punjab a better place.
There is some fighting within the Congress party about who should be the chief minister.
Sidhu has not been very active in politics lately and has been doing cricket commentary and starting a YouTube channel.
The BJP party said that the Congress party is corrupt and should explain the allegations.
The next big election in Punjab is in 2027.
Navjot Singh Sidhu will return to active politics if the Congress declares him as the party's chief ministerial face in Punjab.
Navjot Kaur Sidhu, his wife, stated they do not have money to give to any party but can transform Punjab into a 'golden state'.
There is infighting within the Punjab Congress unit, with five leaders aspiring for the chief minister's position.
Sidhu has not been participating in the party's events and activities for the past many months and did not campaign in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
The BJP has demanded clarification from the Congress leadership over allegations of corruption and misuse of power.
