Former union minister Kumari Selja today welcomed HJC leader Kuldeep Bishnoi's return to the Congress, and said the party would be strengthened by the move.
Selja also expressed confidence that the Congresss would come to power in Punjab after the 2017 assembly elections.
She hit out at the BJP for hike in prices of petroleum products, saying it would affect the common man, especially farmers, in the country.
Selja criticised the Haryana government's decision to withdraw cabinet rank for former chief ministers, including Bhupinder Singh Hooda, calling it an "undemocratic" move.
She also charged the BJP with registering false cases against Congress leaders as "political vendetta".
