The Congress in Punjab lurched into another crisis today after ex-state chief Sunil Jakhar sneered at the party for apparently forgetting former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's death anniversary. I can understand BJP trying to erase 'Iron Lady of India' from history but don't we still have a Congress Government in Punjab.PS.

At 11.32 am Mr Jakhar - who has not shied away from criticism of the party over the Amarinder Singh-Navjot Sidhu feud, or taking swipes at Chief Minister Charanjit Channi - tweeted an ad from last year - when Amarinder Singh was still Chief Minister - that featured quotes from both leaders.
The senior leader declared he was 'borrowing' the ad as "none appeared today".
"I can understand BJP trying to erase the 'Iron Lady of India' from history, but don't we still have a Congress government in Punjab. PS: I know Captain saab won't mind my using this Punjab government's ad from last year, as none appeared today," he said.
