[ASR,Pb] Karamjit S Rintu Unanimously Elected as Holy City Amritsar’s Mayor
Sidhu Absented him self ,So 15 Congress councillors boycott this election
Karamjit Singh Rintu was today unanimously elected as Amritsar’s mayor by all the municipal corporation councillors, owing allegiance to the Congress.
[2]Raman Bakshi was elected as senior deputy mayor,
[3]Younis Kumar was elected as deputy mayor for the holy city.
Punjab Local Bodies minister Navjot Singh Sidhu, who is an MLA from Amritsar (East), was conspicuous by his absence.
Yesterday, apparently miffed over not being invited for the Amritsar mayoral election, Sidhu had said “he never goes anywhere uninvited except the Golden Temple or Durgiana Temple”.
Notably, Sidhu and Rintu were not on good terms. Sidhu also does not share a good rapport with senior deputy mayor Bakshi, who once pasted posters of Sidhu “missing” in city when the latter was in the BJP.
Rintu had also reportedly remained annoyed with the party when he was denied ticket from the Amritsar North Assembly constituency during the 2017 Assembly polls.

Mahesh Inder Singh represents the Baghapurana Assembly seat,
Rajwinder Kaur is the sitting MLA from Nihal Singh Wala constituency.
Welcoming them into the party fold, capt Amarinder said this will help strengthen the Congress party ahead of the upcoming polls. He reiterated that the exodus of leaders and workers from SAD and the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) would further increase as the elections drew closer, especially after the imposition of the Code of Conduct in Punjab.

Confirmed his meeting, with Navjot Singh Sidhu
He said “I can tell you that I have met him. I hope very soon he will be making his announcement. I found him in a very positive frame of mind. I hope it will be a positive decision,” Amarinder said
Sidhu’s entry into Congress has been speculated for a long time now. His wife Navjot Kaur joined the party recently, giving ample indications that he would also come on board.
Sidhu was earlier in talks with AAP but it did not materialise leading to a split in his recently formed outfit Awaaz-E-Punjab.
Two formidable members of Awaaz-E-Punjab and sitting independent MLAs – Balwinder Singh Bains and Simarjit Singh Bains from Ludhiana, parted ways with Sidhu to join the Arvind Kejriwal led AAP.
Pargat Singh, the other member, joined the Congress along with Sidhu’s wife

Her resignation was accepted by Union minister Vijay Sampla, who is also Punjab BJP president.
Kaur’s resignation was expected after Sidhu, a former BJP MP, left the saffron party and floated his own “Awaaz-e-Punjab” front.
Earlier in the day, she sent her one-line resignation to the party president at Punjab BJP headquarters

[Sangrur,Punjab]Cong Capt Amarinder Dismisses Sidhu’s Front as ‘Inconsequential’
Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Amarinder Singh today dismissed the Awaaz-e-Punjab front led by Navjot Singh Sidhu as “too insignificant and too inconsequential” to have any impact on the political scenario in the state.
He said “Three MLAs don’t make a political party,”
Interacting with reporters along the sidelines of the ‘Coffee with Captain’ programme organised here,
Amarinder also clarified that neither he nor the Congress party had sent any emissaries to invite Sidhu to join the party.
“I had only said, he was welcome to join the party since he and also Pargat Singh had Congress background as their families were actively involved with the party,” he said, while adding Sidhu should name the people from the Congress who went to meet him on his behalf.
The PPCC president said, the Congress did not face any challenge from anyone and the party will comfortably form the government in the state.
He said the Akalis are finished while AAP has already imploded.
Amarinder strongly defended his stand against any outsider seeking to become the Chief Minister of Punjab.
“That is why I have challenged Kejriwal that I will fight against him from any constituency he chooses to contest from in Punjab,” he said, while adding, “I am clear about it that Punjab is for Punjabis only”

Sidhu Erects AAP’s Punjabi Clone In Aaavaz Ae Punjab
Former BJP leader Navjot Singh Sidhu, who quit his Rajya Sabha seat recently, is all set to float his own political outfit ‘Awaaz-e-Punjab’ along with some ousted Akali leaders, Now Punjab Elections Taking Pentagon Shape
AAP+SAD+Congress+AAP Punjab+Aavaz e Punjab
Sources said after his talks with AAP And Congress “failed”, Sidhu decided to float the outfit along with some like-minded people and held a meeting with suspended Akali legislator from Jalandhar, Pargat Singh, and Bains brothers of Ludhiana – Simarjeet Singh Bains and Balwinder Singh Bains, both of whom won as independent legislators.
The AAP, which has made it a triangular contest in Punjab by giving a tough fight to ruling Akali-BJP combine and Congress, was taken aback by the development as there were talks of Sidhu joining the party after deserting the BJP.
Sidhu had in mid-August met Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal at his residence and discussed with him his plans of joining the AAP. Kejriwal on August 19 said the cricketer- turned-politician just needs “time to think” and that Sidhu “has not put any pre-condition”, a reference to speculation that Sidhu wanted to be the chief ministerial face of AAP.
Posters showing a photograph of Sidhu, Pargat and Bains brothers together were today posted by the front’s leaders that said the four have joined hands for the politics of hope and faith.
