Sukhbir accuses Cong of having links with ISI

New Delhi: Punjab deputy chief minister Sukhbir Singh Badal has accused Congress Party of being an 'anti-national' organisation and having links with terrorist organisations like Pakistan's ISI just for the sake of political gains. Badal said that the militancy of the 80s was a creation of the Congress to fight Akali Dal. “The Congress encouraged certain elements which then went out of control and that led to full 15 years of disturbance in Punjab which even threatened the nation's integrity. Today, Congress under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi is trying to create the same environment in the state of Punjab," Badal said. "The Congress is showing its true colours and it is an anti-national party," he said.
