The Congress is all set to hit top gear in poll-bound Punjab as former prime minister Manmohan Singh released the party's manifesto for the state on Monday afternoon in New Delhi, coupled with parallel releases in Chandigarh and at district level.

On Tuesday, the Congress is expecting the high profile joining of ex-leader of BJP Navjot Singh Sidhu, who is likely to contest assembly elections in the state.

The Congress manifesto for Punjab was released at party headquarters in the presence of top state leaders, including Punjab Congress chief Amarinder Singh and Rajinder Bhattal, the chairperson of the manifesto drafting panel of Punjab Congress.

Aiming to fight the deplorable conditions, the party vowed to rid the state of the drug menace that engulfs it.

Drugs is the first thing we will attack and in four weeks we will end this drug menace in Punjab.
Amarinder Singh, Punjab Congress chief
