Alliance with BJP in Punjab intact: SAD chief Sukhbir Singh Badal 

Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) chief Sukhbir Singh Badal on Tuesday said that his party alliance with the BJP in Punjab was intact, as it has been for 20 years. “I have been hearing for the past 20 years that the alliance between both the parties is breaking. It is intact, as it has been for the past 20 years,” he told the media here. His wife Harsimrat Kaur Badal is a Union Minister in the Narendra Modi-led Central government. “The SAD-BJP alliance is necessary to bring peace and prosperity in the state,” he said. Slamming the rebel Akalis, he said they were part of the Congress’ ‘B team’ that aimed to weaken the “original” SAD which was formed a century ago. (IANS)
