Navjot Kaur Sidhu resigns from Congress, alleges collusion between Punjab party chief and AAP

Former Punjab MLA Navjot Kaur Sidhu has resigned from the Congress, months after being suspended from the party.

Her exit follows a renewed public attack on Punjab Congress president Amrinder Singh Raja Warring, whom she has accused of corruption and political collusion. The resignation was announced through a post on X, where Sidhu alleged that Warring was working in tandem with the Aam Aadmi Party and Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann to weaken the Congress from within. In her post, Sidhu described Warring as “the most horrific, incapable, corrupt president ever” and accused him of entering into an understanding with the Aam Aadmi Party for personal and political gain.

She wrote, “You saved yourself from jail by co partening with CM to destroy Congress. You have sold the party for petty gains with an understanding with AAP.” Sidhu also alleged that senior Congress leaders who, according to her, worked against her interests were not only spared but rewarded.

She questioned the party leadership’s silence, asking why no action was taken against leaders she claimed had openly challenged the party line, while she faced suspension. Sidhu was suspended from the Congress in December 2025, days after her public remarks about an alleged Rs 500-crore offer linked to securing the Chief Minister’s post triggered unrest within the Punjab unit of the party.

At the time, Warring dismissed her allegations, calling them a diversionary tactic and accusing her of attempting to shield the AAP, according to ANI.

In her latest post, Sidhu claimed she possessed damaging evidence against the Punjab Congress chief but chose not to pursue it.

She wrote, “I have enough proof to destroy you, but I am not interested because I myself have quit Congress, where no promising leader is heard.”

She accused the party leadership of prioritising internal conflict over electoral success and said the Congress was paying the price for it.

“I have enough proof to destroy you, but I am not interested because I myself have quit Congress, where no promising leader is heard. You planted people in my seat with the intention to defeat my seat. Where is your action against senior leaders like Ashu, Channi, Bhattal ji, Dr Gandhi ji and many more who have openly challenged you and your party? You have just become a laughing stock, and people are enjoying your reels. Stop disrespecting Congress leaders who love Navjot. You are more busy in destroying the party rather than making it win. Shame on you for not being sincere with your own party, which is your mother party. You have done enough damage.”
