Other prominent lawmakers included Raja Waring, Dr Raj Kumar Verka Inderbir Bolaria Barinder Dhillon Madan Lal Jalapuri, Harminder Gill Harjot Kamal Harminder Jassi Joginder Pal Pargat Singh Gobaya and Sukhjinder Randhawa.Though Amarinder has so far remained silent on Sidhu reaching out to party MLAs but his media advisor Raveen Thukral had on Tuesday reiterated that the CM would not meet Sidhu until he apologised for his derogatory statements against him in the past. Reports of sherryontop seeking time to meet capt_amarinder are totally false. No time has been sought whatsoever. No change in stance.CM won’t meet Navjot Singh Sidhu till he publicly apologises for his personally derogatory social media attacks against him tweeted Thukral.Senior cabinet minister Brahm Mohindra has already extended his support to the CM stating that he would not meet Sidhu until the issues between him and Amarinder were sorted.
