The recent statements of various Akali leaders, including Sukhbir, clearly exposed their ignorance on this sensitive issue, with grave repercussions for the nation, said Captain Amarinder, urging Sukhbir to read the book and decide \u201cwhether it\u2019s country first or political expediency\u201d. \u201cSupporting the bill in both houses of Parliament and in the Vidhan Sabha and opposing it on other platforms is unbecoming of a political leader,\u201d the Chief Minister said in a letter sent to Sukhbir along the book.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p>\n<p>In the letter, Captain Amarinder recalled that, during the last Vidhan Sabha session, he had promised to send the Shiromani Akali Dal copies of Hitler\u2019s Mein Kampf, which in English translates to &#8216;My Struggles.\u2019 \u201cThese were his (Hitler\u2019s) beliefs which he sold to the German people In his rise to power, which later became his governments policy, when his Nazi party assumed office,\u201d wrote the Chief Minister, adding that \u201cApart from destroying Germany in World War 2, to fulfil his territorial ambition, from the time he assumed office in 1933 to the end of the war in 1945, his purification of the German race by his ethnic cleansing, led initially to the removal of his main opposition, the communist parties, followed by persecution of the intellectuals, and finally to the extermination of the Jews.\u201d<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p>\n<p>\u201cRead the book, as one always learns from history. The world has changed and our television and other media are powerful, and certainly different to that of Germany in the thirties under Joseph Goebbels. Nevertheless, the talk of camps and a national register to eliminate the Muslim and Jewish communities is ominous,\u201d Captain Amarinder further wrote, adding that while some of the political parties, including the Congress, were protesting everyday along with universities across the country, \u201cit is time now that others, too, join this movement.\u201d<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, taking the SAD president head-on over yesterday\u2019s remarks, the Chief Minister, in a statement here, also asked him to explain how his (Captain Amarinder\u2019s) demand for the Akalis to quit NDA over CAA amounted to &#8220;subservience&#8221; to the Gandhi family. \u201cOr are you trying to say that the lakhs of people out on the streets to protest against CAA are doing so simply out of subservience to the Gandhi family,\u201d he asked Sukhbir.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p>\n<p>Retorting to Sukhbir\u2019s \u2018saving his chair\u2019 jab, the Chief Minister said his chair was quite secure. \u201cBut apparently, you are worried about your wife Harsimrat\u2019s chair in the union cabinet and do not want her to lose that at any cost,\u201d quipped Captain Amarinder, adding that this could be the reason for SAD refusing to walk out of NDA despite claiming to take a stand against CAA.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p>\n<p>Dubbing Sukhbir\u2019s remarks as a blatant case of double standards, the Chief Minister pointed out that the SAD chief was deliberately twisting his (Captain Amarinder\u2019s) statements in a bid to fool the people on the government\u2019s stand on CAA. \u201cOr is he so ignorant that he does not understand the difference between seeking an inclusive legislation, which allows citizenship for all communities, including Muslims and Sikhs, and a law that excludes certain sections such as the Muslims and Jews etc?\u201d asked the Chief Minister.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI fail to understand what clarification Sukhbir wants from me on this count? Can he point out a single instance or statement where I have opposed giving relief to persecuted Sikhs or, for that matter, to persecuted Hindus or Buddhists? \u201dasked Captain Amarinder. Not only had he personally always stood for the rights and interests of Sikhs, at no point had he asked for Sikhs to be excluded from the ambit of CAA, pointed out the Chief Minister, asking the SAD president to stop indulging in such brazen fabrications to mislead the people.<u><\/u><u><\/u><\/p>\n<p>In fact, said the Chief Minister, it was Sukhbir who needed to clarify his and his party\u2019s stand on CAA, considering their outrageously contradictory statements on the issue over the past several days. \u201cFirst they support CAA wholeheartedly in Parliament, then some of them (Akali leaders) say they want Muslims in CAA (why they did not say so in Parliament is beyond comprehension), then one of their leaders says they won\u2019t fight Delhi polls because they are not ready to review their stand on CAA. But nobody knows what their stand on CAA really is,\u201d quipped the Chief Minister, asking Sukhbir to give clarity, once and for all, on the controversial issue.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0a2e\u0a3e\u0a2b\u0a3c \u0a15\u0a30\u0a28\u0a3e, \u0a07\u0a39 \u0a16\u0a2c\u0a30 \u0a24\u0a41\u0a39\u0a3e\u0a21\u0a40 \u0a2c\u0a47\u0a28\u0a24\u0a40 \u0a2d\u0a3e\u0a38\u0a3c\u0a3e \u0a35\u0a3f\u0a71\u0a1a \u0a09\u0a2a\u0a32\u0a2c\u0a27 \u0a28\u0a39\u0a40\u0a02 \u0a39\u0a48\u0964 \u0a15\u0a3f\u0a30\u0a2a\u0a3e \u0a15\u0a30\u0a15\u0a47 \u0a07\u0a71\u0a25\u0a47 \u0a26\u0a47\u0a16\u0a4b\u0964 \u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0QUIPS HIS CHAIR IS \u2018SECURE\u2019 BUT SUKHBIR EVIDENTLY TRYING TO SAVE WIFE\u2019S CHAIR IN UNION CABINET BY NOT QUITTING NDA \u00b7\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0SENDS SAD CHIEF \u2018MEIN KAMPF\u2019 TO READ &amp; LEARN FROM HISTORY, THEN DECIDE \u2018WHETHER COUNTRY FIRST OR POLITICAL EXPEDIENCY\u2019 \u00a0Even [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3989,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[109,122,4,180],"tags":[132,149],"class_list":["post-3988","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-national","category-news","category-politics","category-punjab","tag-cm-punjab","tag-congress"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3988","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3988"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3988\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3989"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3988"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3988"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsnarad.com\/pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3988"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
