Hidden love in Punjab

This should sound like music to S.K.Sinha, former Principal Secretary to Chief Minister Amarinder Singh and B.I.S.Chahal, Media Advisor of Chief Minister who had been sent on leave after a strong protest by dissident Cong MLA's against both of them. The official website of the Punjab Government www.punjabgov.net has been updating everyday,without any fail,all major press clippings and reports under the header "Press Releases " on the site. Interestingly the sublink "Important Contacts" within the link "Chief Minister's office" still mentions , 1973 batch Punjab Cadre officer, S.K.Sinha as Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister and B I S Chahal as Media Advisor. How is it that the Punjab Govt which is updating the site everyday with fresh press reports and
clippings, has forgotten to update the C M office's contacts?? Or is it that the hidden love is still showing?? The following phenomena can be witnessed on : http://www.punjabgov.net/gov_cm.asp#b
