CHANDIGARH: Even as a couple of Congress leaders began tweeting about making the father of slain Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala the consensus candidate for Sangrur bypoll slated for June 23, the latter released a video message on Saturday saying that he was not in the frame of mind to even consider such a thing.
In the video message, the singer's father, Balkaur Singh, said he felt sad at the rumours on social media. He said he had just lost his son and had no plans to contest elections. He also sought the presence of the singer's fans at his bhog in Mansa on June 8 and said he would share his thoughts with them there. He also thanked people for standing by the family.
