Chandigarh : Congress leader Sukhpal Singh Khaira came into criticism from the party and from the ruling Akali Dal after he joined the Aam Aadmi Party here on Friday. While the Congress termed it a “good riddance” for the party, the SAD said the move shows the “political opportunism” of AAP.
Hitting back for calling Congress leaders ‘tainted and corrupt’, the party said Khaira’s father, Sukhjinder Singh, who was a minster, was sacked for corruption.
