Cricketer turned Politician Navjot Siddhu recently launched a youtube channel “Jitega Punjab”. Siddhu, who has been lying low since his resignation from the state Cabinet in last July, launched his own channel on YouTube to share his views.
His Congress party is about to complete three years in Punjab. In his maiden video, a sulking Sidhu who met interim party Chief Sonia Gandhi in New Delhi on February 27 and apprised her of the political situation in Punjab, said he would communicate with the people in a simple way. The channel named 'Jittega Punjab' or 'Punjab will Win' invites all like-minded people to share their views.
A communication by Sidhu's office said, "It is a platform to propel Punjab towards revival and renaissance. After nine months of contemplation and self-renewal, the former minister, four-term Member of Parliament and MLA Amritsar East will be vocal on the burning issues of Punjab and strive to carve out a concrete roadmap for the resurrection of Punjab as a welfare state."
Sidhu said the channel is inspired by the path of universal brotherhood, tolerance, love and peace shown by Baba Nanak.
Siddhu had resigned from his post as a Cabinet Minister in the state after differences with Chief Minister Amarinder Singh over portfolio allocation. Sidhu was in-charge of local bodies but was shifted to the Power Department.
