However, he said this “revolution” can sustain only if all the needy people stand united to support the Congress. He said only the Congress can take a “revolutionary” decision to oust a “Maharaja” and bestow responsibility of the chief minister to a common man. Mr Channi said he continued his struggle for the common and underprivileged masses due to which the “haughty Maharaja” was ousted by the Congress party. However, Mr Channi alleged that instead of resolving the issues to give a reprieve to the poor and downtrodden, the “Maharaja” started victimising him. His remarks came a day after Mr Kejriwal visited Pathankot ahead of the upcoming polls.Īttacking Amarinder Singh, Mr Channi said, “As the chief minister, the ”Maharaja” (Amarinder Singh) targeted me because I had raised issues of the common man.”Īs he comes from a family with a humble background, the chief minister said he always impressed upon Amarinder Singh to safeguard the interests of the common man.
