Former IPS officer Mohammad Mustafa is principal strategic adviser to Punjab Congress president Navjot Singh Sidhu

Chandigarh: After he turned down an offer to become one of the four advisers of Punjab Congress president Navjot Singh Sidhu, former IPS officer Mohammad Mustafa has now been appointed principal strategic adviser to Sidhu on Thursday.
“He would also act as PCC coordinator with the AICC on issues pertaining to his domain and any other matters that the PPCC president may deem fit,” said the appointment letter issued by Sidhu.
Sidhu himself handed over the appointment letter to Mustafa in the presence of his wife Razia Sultana, who is a minister in the Congress government.
Mustafa said, “How could I say no this time? He showed the magnanimity of a great human being and came down to my house, almost unnotified. I have done no favours, just nothing for him ever. But he said the system did not recognise my contribution in restoration of peace to the state and instead humiliated me and that he wanted to do his bit to reinstate my honour. I feel privileged to work with a man of honour like him.”
Earlier, Mustafa was named one of the advisers to the PPCC president but the former DGP had said he would continue to work for the revival of Congress in Punjab and offer support to Sidhu without any political position.
