Sidhu in a fix. His rivals ask him to fulfil his pledge to quit politics after Rahul’s defeat from Amethi

While the Bhartiya Janata Party led National Democratic Alliance has achieved a historic majority even crossing the previous limit of 2014, securing 349 Lok Sabha seats, all set to form the government for the second consecutive term, in social media the chief election campaigner of Congress party Navjyot Singh Sidhu’s photograph and his promise that he will quit politics if Rahul Gandhi loses election from Amethi is going viral.

His arch rivals n BJP’s supporters n die hard sympathisers are reminding cricketer turned minister in Punjab government Sidhu about his promise in Rai Bareilly while campaigning for UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi that he will quit politics in case Rahul loses his election from Amethi.

Navjyot Singh Sidhu had extensively campaigned for Congress party n Rahul as well as Sonia Gandhi and had been spitting venom against the prime minister Modi n BJP led NDA during his poll campaigns at the pan India level.

Now the people are questioning Sidhu in social media whether he will quit politics or not ?

It may be recalled that union minister of textiles and BJP’s candidate from Amethi Smriti Irani has won the election securing 3, 39, 773 votes against Rahul Gandhi’s votes of 2, 94, 290 thus winning by 46 thousand votes.

However in Punjab where Sidhu is in government the Congress party sought victory in 9 seats out of 13 whereas the Punjab CM Amrinder Singh is annoyed with the former saying that it was because of Sidhu’s Pakistan visit n embracing the PAK Army chief Bajwa there, that the party lost four seats otherwise it would have won them n the Congress’s victory have been in all the 13 seats.

The relations between Sidhu n Amrendra Singh are not good. Navjyot Singh Sidhu’s visit to Pakistan twice n hugging the Pak Army chief in public praising him n Pak PM Imran Khan was not taken in good taste by the countrymen. Sidhu had to even leave the popular Kapil Sharma show and was trolled n criticized badly in the social networking sites as well in the media, print n electronics.
