By Tricitynews Reporter
Chandigarh 30th January:- Taking a serious note of PTC news channel airing  his photo in a news related to expulsion of Balbir Singh Sidhu of Talwandi Saboo from Congress , Balbir Sidhu the Congress candidate from Mohali has complained the matter to Election Commission while seeking action against channel.
Addressing a press conference at District Congress Committee office at Phase 1 here today, Balbir Singh Sidhu said that after seeing its defeat in coming poll, Akali Dal has now resorted to such cheap political tactics. It is in fact another poll gimmick by them to tarnish his image by using these kinds of cheap means. After they failed to match his political clout and popularity in Mohali, they have used their own channel to deliberately run his photo in news that has nothing to do with him and not having any faraway link with him.
Balbir Singh Sidhu further said that channel has tried to bring bad name to his reputation without authenticate the facts before telecasting his photo in news related to some other.
In a complain letter to Dr. Nasim Zaidi, Chief Election Commissioner, Balbir Singh Sidhu has accused channel to telecast his photograph intentionally in a  news related to Balbir Singh Sidhu who belongs to Talwandi Saboo in Bathinda district.
The copy of letter has also been forwarded to the Punjab State Election Commissioner, District Electoral Officer and Deputy Commissioner, Mohali for information and necessary action.
