Amarinder asks Badal to be prepared for 'political exile'

Taking a dig at Punjab Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal, Congress leader Amarinder Singh today said that rather than dreaming of forming a government again in 2017, Badal should prepare himself for "political exile" that the people will impose upon him.
"Given the current circumstances and the anger prevailing among people against the Badals, the exile will be the only option available to them as people will chase them down for all the sins of omission and commission during their two tenures," Singh said.
The state Congress chief's reaction comes in the wake of Badal's statement yesterday who asked the former to be prepared for a third "consecutive defeat".

The former Chief Minister said Badal had "failed" all sections of the state, including farmers, youth, industry, employees etc.
"This is because he could never look beyond his family and clan with seven MLAs of his family in the Vidhan Sabha and four of them being ministers and another in the central government," Singh said.
Responding to the CM's claims that he would be forming the government for the third consecutive term in 2017, the PCC president asked Badal to name a single assembly segment that would guarantee a win for Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) .
"Leave aside Punjab, you better worry about your feudal fiefdom of Lambi which is certain to write your political obituary this time," Singh charged.
