When asked about Charanjit Singh Channi’s defeat in the Punjab Assembly Elections 2022, Navjot Singh Sidhu was quoted by news agency ANI as saying, “I’m not going into deep thought about whether people accepted Channi's face as a CM candidate or not...”
Hitting out at his detractors, the Punjab Congress chief said, “People who dug holes for Sidhu got buried in holes 10 ft deeper. Let bygones be bygones. People have voted for AAP for a change, I congratulate them.”
“New seeds have to be sown... not ‘chinta’ but ‘chintan’ should be done,” he added.
Showing no signs of distress, he said the upliftment of Punjab is his mission and he never strayed from it and never will. “When a Yogi is on a crusade, they cut all ties and are free of all bounds. They don't even fear death. I am here in Punjab and will remain here. When someone has a higher objective and is in love with Punjab then he doesn't care about win or loss,” he said.
“My connection with the people is not limited, it's spiritual and of the heart. My relationship with the people is not limited to poll wins and losses. I see God in the people of Punjab and my welfare in their welfare,” he said.
