Jojo lashes out at Warring pick

-

Within hours of the appointmen­t of new district Congress presidents in Punjab on Saturday night, a sharp divide surfaced in the Bathinda Urban, the constituen­cy of the former finance minister Manpreet Badal. Jaijeet Johal aka Jojo, brother-inlaw of Manpreet, who was overall in-charge of the ex-minister’s political activities, lashed out against the appointmen­t of Rajan Garg as the new district chief of the party unit. Johal took to social media to term Garg’s appointmen­t as unfortunat­e and against the wishes of the party workers. He claimed that Garg was rewarded for speaking against Manpreet as state Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring is also opposed to the former minister. Manpreet has been mum, though.
