The comments came a day after Amarinder Singh said he would float his political party and may align with the BJP if the farmers' protest is resolved.
The Congress on Wednesday took a swipe at former Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh, asking him if he had colluded with the BJP in bringing the three agriculture laws against whom the farmers are protesting since last year.
The comments came a day after Amarinder Singh, who resigned as chief minister in September after he had fallen out with the Congress leadership, said he would float his political party and may align with the BJP if the farmers' protest is resolved.
"The way such statements are being given in public, the question is whether Amarinder Singh and the BJP were in collusion with each other over the bringing of three black agri laws," said Congress spokesperson Gourav Vallabh, adding Singh''s statements vindicate the party''s decision to replace him as chief minister.
"It seems the BJP and Amarinder Singh were together in bringing the three farm laws," he said when asked about Singh's statement.
