Amritsar | Saturday | 16th February, 2019

Summary:

He had already got his son Davinder a Congress ticket from Fazilka assembly segment. While he has not spoken much against former CM Parkash Singh Badal, Ghubaya has made his dislike for party president Sukhbir quite apparent.When a sleazy video clip of Ghubaya appeared in the social media, he blamed Sukhbir for it. The things came to a head with 56-year-old Ghubaya addressing a press conference with Congress MP Ravneet Singh Bittu when he contested against Sukhbir from Jalalabad assembly segment in the 2017 state assembly elections. FEROZEPUR: When a score of MLAs of Shiromani Akali Dal were ready to vacate their assembly seats for Sukhbir Badal in 2009, he decided to contest from Jalalabad assembly segment, represented by Sher Singh Ghubaya at that time. He reasoned that given the increase in SC population in Punjab, the number of reserved assembly seats should be hiked from 34 to 36..
