Bedi and deputy mayor Kuljeet Singh Bedi were expelled by Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring a month after Mohali mayor Amarjit Singh Sidhu, along with his brother and former cabinet minister Balbir Singh Sidhu, had switched from the Congress to the BJP on June 4, 2022.

Despite joining the BJP and the Congress having the majority in the 50-member MC House, Amarjit continues to hold the mayor’s seat, purportedly with the support of the Congress councillors, who are said to have been convinced by Somal and Bedi.

On Tuesday evening, Bedi met Anandpur Sahib member of Parliament Manish Tewari at his residence and said the senior Congress leader had assured that he will be back in the Congress soon. “The Congress is in my blood. I will soon be meeting Warring in this regard,” he said.
