“Thoko Tali”: Amrinder Singh’s Party PLC Mocks Sidhu Over SC Verdict

Chandigarh: The Punjab Lok Congress, led by Captain Amarinder Singh, has insulted former Punjab Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu, who was sentenced to a year in prison in a 34-year-old road rage case by the Supreme Court.

Taking to Twitter, the Punjab Lok Congress wrote, “Thoko Tali!”

Sidhu’s renowned television comedy show refrain is Thoko Tali (clap your hands).

Sidhu’s Road Rage Case

In a three-decade-old road rage case, the Supreme Court on Thursday sentenced cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu to one year in prison.

The Supreme Court had already granted a review of its May 2018 decision exonerating former Punjab Congress President Navjot Singh Sidhu in the 34-year-old road rage case in which Patiala resident Gurnam Singh died.

According to the order, Punjab police will take Sidhu into jail. Sidhu had previously been given a Rs 1,000 fine. Sidhu has now been sentenced to the maximum penalty under Section 323 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
