Arora has called for 19 AAP MLAs and disgruntled Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu to come together in order to form a new government in Punjab. The four rebel MLAs, who had earlier raised the issue of corruption in the bureaucracy, said that they find themselves vindicated.

The four Congress MLAs, Hardial Singh Kamboj, Madan Lal Jalalpur, Nirmal Singh Shutrana and Kaka Rajinder Singh, had accused a Punajb official of taking bribe who was later booked on the charges of kidnapping and extortion, reports HT. 

The four legislators claimed that they had the support of 40 MLAs which also included ministers and MPs and demanded CM Amarinder Singh to give them a hearing.
