“We clearly stand by our word and will not align with an Amarinder-led Congress. Amarinder is hand in glove with the Badals. His dubious behind-the-curtain deals with the Badals are an open secret. There is no question of betraying the people of Punjab. Politics is a mission, not a profession. This is a war between right and wrong. We will be on the right side and back Punjab.”
