Chandigarh: When the commotion grew in the Punjab Congress to give the name of the faces of the main minister, with other cabinet ministers Brahm Mohindra Go Public with a request on Wednesday, Party’s Incharge of Punjab Choudhary clarified that they would oppose the assembly poll under “Collective Leadership”.
The regunity came a day after AAP announced Bhagwant Mann as a cm-pick.
So far, the high command of the Congress has taken a walk in making a choice between Charanjit Singh Channi’s head minister and the president of the Punjab Congress Navjot Singh Sidhu.
Looking for more clarity on the head of the party’s nomination, the leader of the Senior Congress Mohindra said, “There should be no confusion about announcing candidates for ministerial heads when there are people who prove themselves beyond everyone’s expectations.” Supporting Channi, Mohindra refers to “extraordinary performance” at post cm for three months.
He added that it was the Congress Party that has determined the tradition of declaring CM candidates ahead of the election in 2012 and 2017.
“It must continue with that tradition and announce candidates faster than later,” he said.
Congress Insiders says both Channi and Sidhu are competitors to face cm.
What makes complicated selection for parties is that the announcement can trigger further no need.
Mohindra added that it had become increasingly important when AAP had announced Mann as a CM and SAD candidate (b) has projected Sukhbir Singh Badal as a CM candidate.
“In such circumstances, the Congress was unable to leave a vacuum because it could prove to harm the party’s interests,” he said.
“That’s too, when we have a much better choice than others, try and test (candidates),” he added.
Meanwhile, Sidhu supporters in the party have rooted for him but alert to the public because the party’s leadership has been, so far, it is maintained that the election will be fought under the “collective leadership” in the state – Sidhu, Sunil Jakhar.
Last week, the cabinet minister Rana Gurjit Singh, who recently locked the horn with Sidhu, said that raising a question mark about Channi’s future because CM would be a suicide for a party.
By asserting that Channi had done a very extraordinary work as cm for three months, he added, “The problem of the minister’s head was settled for Congress in Punjab three months ago and did not need to be debated or discussion about it.” “Starting with the first meeting.
Campaign Committee, Face CM Problems have been discussed at various levels in the party.
Although there is a previous decision to go to elections under collective leadership, many leaders now want the clarity to be given to voters.
The inability of party leadership to make decisions is to send a confusing signal to Cadres and voters, “said a leader of the Congress.
At the same time, without making claims directly to the top post, Sidhu has stated that announcing the face of CM (Amarinder Singh) works for Congress in the last election while AAP is intermittent on this number.
On Monday, Congress had tweeted videos where actor Sonu Sood was heard said “the real minister’s head was a person who did not have to say that he was a candidate for ministerial heads”.
Sonu Sood’s comments were followed by several Channi clips that took part in various events.
