PATIALA: Punjab Lok Congress (PLC) president and former chief minister Captain Amarinder Singh said here on Tuesday that for development, industrialisation, and jobs, the state needed a government that was in alliance with the Centre.
He said that all the development and Covid management associated with his term as Punjab CM had been possible because the central government could never refuse him because of his good relations with the Prime Minister and the other key members of the Bharatiya Janata Party. The BJP is now his ally and he campaigned with its local leadership on Tuesday for Patiala mayor Sanjeev Sharma ‘Bittu’, who contests for the Patiala (Rural) assembly seat.
