Amarinder Singh Tires Hard to Win Over Punjab!

From Maharaja to Captain, Amarinder Singh struggles hard to captivate the attention of Punjab people. Although his kingdom is long vanished but the distinctiveness so remains!

Amarinder Singh lived a king size life to the hilt. He had a routine of waking up late, working little and wrapping up early. His public interactions were limited to few hours. All this bring him the image of cloistered maharaja, who wasn’t in the reach of ordinary men and his own party workers.

Now it is the beginning of change, where the maharaja is jabbed by the election manager Prashant Kishore, is making rigorous efforts to make an effective image makeover. The series of events were carried out to change his maharaja image to the captain, the rank he held in the Army before the retirement.

Punjab is all geared up for the polls early next year 2017; it’s a do or die situation for Captain Amarinder and his Congress party. It is imperative for him to take his party to the victory after the hiatus of ten years, or else it would be an end of his political career.

There is an additional impulse for the image makeover. This time they have to contend with two strong parties viz. Akali-BJP alliance and Aam Aadmi Party. AAP has already placed itself as the frontrunner.

Taking the maharaja image would have allowed AAP to flip the choice between a maharaja and an aam admi. On the advice of ace political strategist Prashant Kishor, Amarinder is making careful efforts to make himself more accessible. Now he is working round the clock to get himself rid of the maharaja tag.

But he forgot that nobody in Punjab will be fooled by these artificial changes. He has lead a life of maharaja throughout and now attempts to change his spots at the last hour won’t work for him.

Even the chat sessions conducted by him goes freewheeling and sometimes even chaotic, where workers fearlessly quiz him on hard questions like his wife’s alleged Swiss bank account and on the habits of waking up late.
