"Sidhu cannot handle anything. Sidhu is not a magic word for Punjab. He is going to a disaster. It is up to the Congress Party that they made him the party state president. But if they made Sidhu the face of the Chief Minister I will oppose him. Because it is a matter of national security. And, I know what kind of relationship he maintains with Pakistan. Prime Minister Imran Khan and General Bajwa are his friends," he said.

Amarinder Singh resigned as Chief Minister and also submitted the resignation of his council of ministers to the Governor earlier in the day.

The resignation came ahead of the meeting of the Congress legislature party convened by the party leadership. (ANI)
