Posters of Sidhu embracing Gen Bajwa emerge in Ludhiana

Posters of Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu embracing Pakistan Army Chief Qamar Javed Bajwa surfaced in many parts of the city as the cricketer-turned-politician is facing flak over his recent comments on the Pulwama terror attack.

Posters in some parts of the city were also smeared with red paint, condemning the Congress leader.

A day after 40 CRPF personnel lost their lives in a terror attack carried out by Pakistan-based terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) in Pulwama, Sidhu had said an entire nation cannot be blamed because of a handful of people, in reference to Pakistan.

Speaking to ANI, BJP leader Rajesh Honey said a "traitor" like Sidhu should be "socially and politically boycotted."

On Tuesday, pictures of Sidhu were burnt in Punjab Assembly as a mark of protest against the Congress leader. Also, Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) MLAs jumped into the Well of the House demanding the resignation of Sidhu over his remarks.
