New Delhi: During a one-day visit to Punjab on Thursday, the Senior Leader of the Congress Rahul Gandhi stated that the State Party unit would get the prospective minister for the election of assembly of February 20.
With the Congress Punjab getting CM candidates, the situation seems to be similar to the one that has appeared Before the party in front of the state of the 2017 election assembly.
Rahul Gandhi visited Mithapur at Jalandhar to overcome Maya’s rally – like all physical actions with political parties had been banned by the General Election Commission for the upcoming assembly selection in five states of Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Uttarakhand, Manipur and Goa – and in his speech Punjab party workers will decide who will become a prospective minister in the state poll.
Rahul said, “The request to express the face of the punjab cm party will meet immediately after consulting Congress workers.” Repeating a party standing in declaring a face against the election of assembly, the former president of the Congress said, “Usually, we don’t do this.
But if our Congress Party, workers and punjab we want this, then we will make a decision on the face of CM.
“What Rahul said, in reality, the departure of tradition.
With a few exceptions, the Congress Party did not state the CM candidate ahead of the assembly election.
VIR BHADRA Singh at Himachal Pradesh is one while the former CM Amarinder Singh in Punjab itself is another.
In the 2017 assembly selection in the same five countries, Harish took care of as a face cm based on him to be the ruling person in the chair.
Amarinder Singh, who led Congress campaign, given pressure on a high party order to announce cm candidates.
He stated that he was fighting in the 2017 Assembly election for the last time.
At the same time the land, he was looking for the opportunity to lead the party in the election.
The ‘Maharaja Patiala’ was given his desire .
Rahul Gandhi himself stated Amarinder Singh as a cm punjab candidate Congress and the last one went to lead PA Rty for a decisive victory in 2017.
While Congress won 77 out of 117 seats, led by Kejriwal debutant Arvind Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) won 20, Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) 15 and who was then allied BJP Three.
Chararjit Singh Channi vs.
Navjot Singh Sidhuif was Amarinder Singh who forced the High Command Congress to state his name as a CM candidate in 2017, was Minister of Punjab Chararjit Singh Channi and the President of the State of the Navjot Singh Sidhu Party which had been given pressure on the announcement of the name ahead of the election of the assembly this.
Since Channi became punjab cm in September 2021, Sidhu looks will create an obstacle for him, whether it is in terms of the election of the State Director General of Police (DGP) or General Advocates (AG).
At the root of the struggle between the two on the leader of the Punjab Congress, Sidhu is eyeing a cm post.
The issue of CM candidates has become a fight between Channi and Sidhu.
Both leaders have demanded that the party must declare the face of CM in the state.
Making a choice between Channi and Sidhu will not be quite difficult.
But the situation had thrown a large dilemma before the party leader as Amarinder Singh, which was overthrown as CM in September 2021, has promised to do anything to ensure that Sidhu did not become CM.
Amarinder Singh has opened a Front against Sidhu calling him “anti-national” and who is friends with Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan and head of the Bajawa military.
So far, Congress tries to maintain a balance between Channi and Sidhu.
But no longer.
This will have to make a difficult choice.
Rahul Gandhi said at Jalandhar: “Charanjit Singh Channi and Navjot Singh Sidhu have assured me that they will accept party decisions and work united.”
