Dubbing Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu's decision to quit the Punjab cabinet a "drama", opposition SAD Sunday asked why he had sent his resignation letter to Rahul Gandhi instead of the chief minister.
Sidhu on Sunday posted his resignation letter on Twitter and tagged senior Congress leaders, including Gandhi who has quit as the party's president.
The letter dated June 10 was sent to Gandhi four days after Sidhu's portfolios of local government and cultural affairs were changed by Chief Minister Amarinder Singh.
The cricketer-turned-politician, however, in another tweet said,"Will be sending my resignation to the Chief Minister, Punjab."
Sidhu, who has been at loggerheads with the chief minister, tweeted, "My letter to the Congress President Shri. Rahul Gandhi Ji, submitted on 10 June 2019."
