Rebellion against Punjab CM Capt Amarinder Singh within Congress ranks, row erupts over sacrilege case year before polls

A year before polls, rebellion has erupted within the Congress against Punjab CM Captain Amarinder Singh over the sacrilege case. His opponents say they are being targetted for raising their voices against the govt.

Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh's opponents have accused him of targeting them for speaking against his government's "failure" to expose the real faces behind the sacrilege case and the recent quashing of the SIT mandated to probe them by Punjab and Haryana High Court. Congress MLA Pargat Singh on Monday accused an aide of Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh of threatening him for questioning the state government over the sacrilege row. The MLA alleged that Sandeep Sandhu, political advisor to Amarinder Singh, threatened him by saying that "papers" have been collected against him and that he "will be set right".
