Sufi singer Hans Raj Hans was inducted into the Congress by the Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Capt Amarinder Singh here today.
Welcoming Hans into the party, Capt Amarinder said given his appeal that goes across all the sections of society, his joining the Congress will definitely benefit the party. He said people like Hans who enjoy a clean image and reputation are widely admired by the people.
Speaking on the occasion, Hans said he had resigned from the Shiromani Akali Dal about one-and-a-half-year ago as he had not found it coming up to his expectations.
The Sufi singer said he had looked around and found that the Congress under Capt Amarinder's leadership was best suited to rule Punjab.
He made it clear that he had not joined the party with any condition as his only aim was to see Punjab grow and prosper.
About the Aam Aadmi Party, he said, there was a great gulf in what they preach and what they practice. He said the AAP balloon was deflating in Punjab and it will be a part of history very soon.
