Punjab assembly elections: Preneet Kaur's 'with family' clip stumps Congress

PATIALA: Missing from the assembly election campaign of the Congress, local MP Preneet Kaur posted a video here on Thursday that she was with family, and family comes first.
Preneet has kept the Congress in suspense by neither campaigning for its candidates nor making any public appearance with her husband, former Punjab chief minister Captain Amarinder Singh, since his unceremonious exit from the party in September last year.Amarinder served the Congress for more than 50 years, including 9.5 as CM. Amarinder is now candidate of his own Punjab Lok Congress from home constituency Patiala Urban, which his erstwhile royal family has served for more than 300 years.
Preneet Kaur came out on social media with a video in which she said: "I am with my family. The family is above everything. This is the major reason I have been sitting back home." Reports are that she sits with her husband's PLC-BJP campaign team behind closed doors and the Congress has served her a notice for alleged anti-party activities but she denies it and disputes a show-cause notice that appeared on a microblogging platform. She said: "I haven't got any show-cause notice, and the one that the media played up is from Twitter, which I hardly use."
The MP said: "Protocol requires that a show-cause notice should come from the Congress general secretary." A senior member of the PLC has claimed that Preneet was to share a public stage with Amarinder at Sanaur on Thursday but she skipped that event. On November 24, the Patiala MP allegedly got a show-cause notice from the Congress over her "secret meetings" with the BJP-PLC combine.
