Sidhu Moosewala's father Balkaur Singh is currently campaigning for Congress in Haryana. On Thursday, he campaigned in support of Congress candidate Bharat Singh Bainiwal from Ellenabad Vidhan Sabha constituency of Sirsa district. Balkaur Singh reached the village of Shakar Mandori in Elanabad, where the people gave him a warm welcome.

Addressing the people from the platform, he said that Sidhu was a true soldier of the Congress party and now is the time to strengthen the hands of Rahul Gandhi.

Attacking the Bharatiya Janata Party, he said that the BJP calls the farmers sitting on the Delhi border as Khalistani, while Haryana is the younger brother of Punjab and we have common problems and we are fighting for our rights.
