BJP MP Navjot Singh Sidhu might be a frequent sight on television, but the Congress claims he is never to be seen in his constituency Amritsar. The party has declared him 'missing'.
Congress activists have put up posters in Amritsar, claiming that the cricketer-turned-politician was missing ever since he won the Lok Sabha elections. The posters have been put up outside government buildings and at prominent places.
The party has even filed a police complaint. "We have lodged a police complaint that Sidhu has been missing for a long time. Whoever finds him will be suitably rewarded," said Rajkumar, Congress MLA.
But the BJP has brushed aside the Congress's claims as a political gimmick. "The Congress is jealous of Sidhu as he is the star campaigner of the BJP. The Congress does not have any leader of Sidhu's stature in Punjab," said Col Amreek Singh, BJP leader.
