CHANDIGARH: Two days after Punjab CM Amarinder Singh met former PM Manmohan Singh amid reports of Punjab Congress’s plans to field him from Amritsar for the parliamentary polls, Amarinder Singh on Tuesday insisted the former PM was ‘never in reckoning for candidature’. He said Manmohan had made it clear he was not interested in contesting elections, citing his age and poor health.


Amarinder described his meeting with Singh in Delhi as a ‘courtesy call’, during which he briefed the former Prime Minister on Congress’s plans in Punjab.
