New Delhi, Jan 24 (IANS): Former Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh on Monday said that he received a request from Pakistan Prime Minister to take Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu in his cabinet.

Amarinder Singh made this disclosure while addressing a joint press conference with BJP chief J.P. Nadda and Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa's Shiromani Akali Dal (Sanyukt) here.

Singh called Sidhu a totally incompetent, incapable and useless man as a minister. "I removed Sidhu from my cabinet because that man is totally incompetent, incapable and totally useless. Sidhu was looking after local self-government. For 70 days he did not complete a file. I called him a few times and offered to give him more power if he wanted, which Sidhu denied," Singh said.

"After two or three weeks, I got a message from somebody whom we both (Sidhu and Singh) knew, saying that he (Pakistan Prime Minister) requested me to include Sidhu in my government and remove if it doesn't work," Singh said.

Talking about the message he received, Singh said, "Message was that the Pakistan Prime minister has sent a request that if you can take Sidhu in your cabinet he will be grateful. He (Sidhu) is an old friend of mine (Pakistan Prime Minister) and if he doesn't work then you can remove him."

    Main thing to worry is a Chief Minister from a powerful country afraid to reveal foreign influence, when he was in power. Either he afraid or something else that should be investigated.

    One thing is damn sure here beyond doubt that Amarinder Singh is in constant communication from across the border. Pulwama heroes and thier masters are now Amarinder’s allies.

    This old man doesn't know what he speaks. He takes his level best to to take revenge with Sidhu. But if BJP fails to get power in Punjab, then this person will be use and throw. That what I believe.
