To resolve the infighting within the Punjab Congress unit, Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on June 4 met the three-member panel appointed by AICC president Sonia Gandhi to apprise them of the outstanding issues within the party’s state unit. The three-member panel is headed by Rajya Sabha leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge along with Delhi MP JP Agarwal & AICC general secretary in-charge of Punjab, Harish Rawat. Former Congress chief Rahul Gandhi has been kept in the loop of all the developments taking place with several Punjab leaders. Amarinder Singh & Navjot Singh Sidhu have been involved in an internal tussle. Sidhu publicly attacked the CM over the Special Investigations Team (SIT) appointed for the sacrilege case, accused him of incompetence, and the inaction on clamping down on the drug mafia in the state. After months of bitter war of words with Amarinder Singh, Sidhu had a meeting with the high-level panel along with party MPs, MLAs and former PCC chiefs and several other leaders. With barely a year left for Assembly elections in the state, there is uneasiness, with Chief Minister Amarinder Singh’s detractors planning to open a front against him. Watch the video to know more.
