Chandigarh: Spilling the beans on why his much-speculated association with the AAP never culminated, cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu on Thursday said that its chief Arvind Kejriwal had asked him not to contest the Punjab Assembly elections but only focus on campaigning (for AAP).
&ldquo;Like the BJP, they (AAP) wanted to make me another decoration piece. Kejriwal told me not to contest and only campaign for the party. I was offered that my wife will be made a minister,&rdquo; said Sidhu.
The chirpy Sidhu, who formally announced a new political front &lsquo;Awaaz-e-Punjab&rsquo; here on Thursday, said that his fight was against the system and the leaders who had &ldquo;ruined&rdquo; Punjab. Sidhu&rsquo;s revelations on the AAP episode, which he described as the &ldquo;other half truth&rdquo; that had not been revealed by Kejriwal in his tweets, came on a day when Kejriwal started his four-day Punjab trip to rejuvenate AAP&rsquo;s crisis-ridden unit.
