After 'Dialogue With Pak' Take, Navjot Sidhu Says War Refuge Of A Failed Govt

Darpan News Desk IANS, 02 Mar, 2019 03:03 AM

    A day after the Congress distanced itself from his “dialogue with Pakistan” take, party leader Navjot Singh Sidhu on Friday said he reiterated his no-war stance saying “war is the refuge of a failed government”.


    Sidhu, who on Thursday had said that peace and dialogue are the only solutions to terrorism, on Friday quoted Chanakya in saying, “A war in which the king’s life is secure is not war, it is politics.”


    Taking to Twitter, Sidhu said, “War is the refuge for a failed government; how many more innocent lives and jawans will you sacrifice for your hollow political motives.”


    Ahead of the general election, Sidhu on Thursday had advised people to choose wisely saying, “We have a choice to change the nation’s destiny.”


    He had also said, “Fear has been among us as an unwelcome guest for the past five years.”
