Patiala repoll win proves our contention that Congress indulged in violence and booth captureing – SAD
14 The Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) today said the party’s stand that the Congress party had indulged in violence and booth capture to save itself from a humiliating defeat in the municipal corporation elections in Patiala had been proved correct with the SAD candidate winning the repoll ordered in Ward number 37 with a huge margin.
In a statement here, former minister Dr Daljit Singh Cheema said the election, which the SAD candidate won with a margin of 600 votes, also reflected the ground reality in Patiala. “It also proves that if the State Election Commission had countermanded the election as demanded by the SAD-BJP combine and conducted the election afresh, the Congress party would have suffered a crushing defeat”.Patiala repoll win proves our contention that Congress indulged in violence and booth captureing–SAD
