Happy to have met Sidhu, says Amarinder Singh

CHANDIGARH: Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh on Thursday said he and former minister Navjot Singh Sidhu had some "simple talks", a day after both leaders met over lunch.

Singh on Wednesday met Sidhu at the former's residence, triggering speculation that the cricketer-turned-politician may be re-inducted into the state cabinet.

The chief minister on Thursday expressed hope that he and Sidhu will continue to have cordial meetings like the one they had on Wednesday, where they spoke a lot about cricket, apart from a host of other things.
