Gandhi’s backing of Warring is no longer just about the future of one Pradesh Congress Committee president. It has become a test of the Congress leadership's authority itself.
This comes days after Congress leadership constituted poll committees, retaining Amarinder Singh Raja Warring as Punjab Congress chief & Partap Singh Bajwa as LoP.
Congress distances itself from Channi’s comments, with Jairam Ramesh saying his views are his own and 'do not reflect in any way the position of the Indian National Congress'.
Congress candidate from Jalandhar, Charanjit Singh Channi says he wants to better understand Punjab’s economy, criticises Modi’s visits & CM Mann’s governance.
Charanjit Singh Channi drew parallels between Poonch attack & 2019 Pulwama attack, saying it was used by BJP for electoral gains, but clarifies he didn't mean to disrespect fallen soldiers.
Party’s state leadership came together to support Jalandhar bypoll candidate. Punjab Congress gen secy says Sidhu, Warring, Channi & Bajwa ‘will work together to campaign for her’.
Channi met Kharge, Priyanka, to 'discuss a possible role' in Punjab unit; the hierarchy underwent thorough shake-up earlier this year following Congress’ defeat in Assembly polls.
The ex-CM was last seen at a public event on Eid and has since been missing from the political scene. Channi has plans to return to India next month, says his brother.
Former Punjab CM is learnt to have left India early in May, 8 weeks after Congress' drubbing in state polls. Party's Punjab chief Warring says his absence at this point is 'unfortunate'.
Bringing in the government whenever something goes wrong is a bad solution, and not in tune with the basic idea that religious affairs are not the business of the state.
Indian imports from China continue to grow significantly. India has taken steps to stabilise ties with China and recent months eased investment curbs in certain sectors for Chinese-linked firms.
Ottawa has handed over execution functions of critical defence projects to a CEO-led organisation for reducing procurement timelines and making it solely accountable for outcomes.
Diljit Dosanjh-starrer Satluj doesn’t blame any political party or individual politicians. We only know the demographic in Punjab it’s bound to trigger the most.
