Former Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh’s “personal” trip to Delhi on Tuesday triggered speculation over the possibility of the miffed Congress veteran embracing the BJP as his current party struggles to set its house in order in the election-bound state.

The murmurs started in the morning, even before his arch rival Navjot Singh Sidhu resigned as Punjab Congress president.

Many conjectured that Amarinder was in Delhi to meet Union home minister Amit Shah and BJP president JP Nadda.
