Hyderabad: Even as senior Congress leaders Ambika Soni and Kamal Nath are trying to mollify Amarinder Singh, the former chief minister met National Security Adviser Ajit Doval Thursday morning. According to sources, he may have discussed Punjab border security amid political turmoil in the state and how Pakistan's ISI may take advantage of a politically unstable state.
Prior to his meeting with Doval, Captain Amarinder Singh met with Home Minister Amit Shah yesterday evening and discussed the controversial farm laws and suggested ways to resolve the deadlock. During the one-hour meeting, he had urged Amit Shah to guarantee minimum support price to farmers and support Punjab in crop diversification.
"Met Union Home Minister @AmitShah ji in Delhi. Discussed the prolonged farmers' agitation against FarmLaws and urged him to resolve the crisis urgently with repeal of the laws and guarantee MSP (Minimum Support Price), besides supporting Punjab in crop diversification. #NoFarmersNoFood," Singh posted.

Should the two-time Chief Minister joins BJP it would be a huge advantage given the fact the party has no face in Punjab.
