He has to be accountable for that. If he cannot come for the sake of his voters, he should immediately resign,' Verka said.

Sidhu, who has been involved with TV news channels as a cricket expert and also figures in various comedy shows on different channels, is reported to be shooting in Mumbai and Delhi in recent days.

'At a time when terrorists are firing rockets into villages in Amritsar district, Sidhu has shown no concern or visited this place to even found out how people are suffering. He has vanished after taking votes of people,' Verka said.

Sidhu, who first got elected from this Lok Sabha seat in May 2004 with a margin of over 110,000 votes, barely scraped through in the 2009 general elections, winning with just over 7,300 votes.

Sidhu could not be reached for comments.
