Chandigarh: Congress has made a enormous comeback in Punjab by securing majority of 77 seats out of 117 seats.
AAP has not performed close to how some thought the debutant in Punjab would as it managed only 20 seats.
The SAD-BJP alliance expected to be reduced to single digits, fared the worst with 18 seats.
Double joy for Captain Amrinder Singh as he is celebrating his 75th birthday and he has won by 52,375 votes from Patiala constituency.
“I would like to thank people of Punjab for voting us in huge numbers,” he says.
Asked about AAP, the leader has this to say: Kejriwal is like a summer storm and now he is gone.
“This is the revival of Congress, mark my words,” says Congress’ Navjot Singh Sidhu on election results.
“It is like new year’s gift for us. It is also the defeat of arrogant politics from Akali leaders. We have to now keep aside politics of revenge and work together for happiness of Punjab”, he added.
