Amarinder said about the meeting, “We met in a very positive atmosphere. Navjot Sidhu appeared inclined to support the Congress but he has to make up his mind about whether he wants to continue with his profession or come on board. It is up to Sidhu now to make the announcement and also declare its nature. He is inclined to back the Congress. That’s the impression I got.”
Sidhu is likely to join the Congress any time now depending on his preference. He has returned to Mumbai.
Earlier, Sidhu’s wife Navjot Kaur had joined the Congress. She had said that her husband would follow soon.
