Gareeban di sarkar? Punjab CM Channi, Sidhu face criticism for hiring private jet to Delhi

Punjab CM Charanjit Singh Channi and state Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu kicked off a controversy by hiring a private jet for a trip to Delhi on Tuesday.

Newly appointed Punjab CM Charanjit Singh Channi kicked off a controversy by hiring a 16-seater private jet to ferry four people to New Delhi on Tuesday. Wonder who’s paying for such luxury - the state govt or @INCPunjab? Can’t be @sherryontopp or @CHARANJITCHANNI or @Sukhjinder_INC or #OPSoni for sure. Though eventually I guess it’s the common man who’ll end up footing the bill for their pleasures! 2/2

Apart from the chief minister and deputy CM Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa, Congress Punjab chief Navjot Singh Sidhu and a relative of his took the flight from Chandigarh to the national capital.
