As the infighting escalates in Punjab congress ahead of state assembly polls, the party high command took another initiative to resolve the ongoing crisis. The top party brass- Punjab CM Charanjit Singh Channi, state party head Navjot Singh Sidhu along with Punjab Affairs in charge Harish Chaudhary and Assembly Speaker KP Singh- have reached at Kedarnath Temple in Uttarakhand.

 

After landing from the state chopper, Navjot Sidhu said that he and CM would pray for the betterment of Punjab.

 

“We are seeking Mahakal's blessings. I will pray for the betterment of Punjab and its people. And that brotherhood in the state pertains,” said the PPCC chief.



 

Before proceeding to their destination, the leaders also met former Punjab affairs in charge Harish Rawat at Dehradun.

 

After meeting the Punjab leaders, Rawat asserted “all is well in state". “I believe that the situation will remain stable in state unit from now on.”

 

The ex- Punjab AICC head also showed confidence that the Channi-Sidhu duo will lead congress towards winning.

 

Despite Rawat’s positive comments, the latest developments in state politics narrate a different story.

 

CM Channi announced tariff reduction on Monday after which Sidhu criticised his own government for lying to people and “making false promises.” Responding to Sidhu’s public statements, Channi refused to accept the resignation of APS Deol as state Advocate-General.

 

Notably, Navjot Singh Sidhu is demanding Deol’s removal since the latter’s appointment. He wants the senior advocate to be ousted for representing two accused cops in a sacrilege and police firing case.

 

The political spectrum in state is perplexed and is likely to remain unresolved for a long time.

 

Meanwhile, the opposition took a dig at Congress leaders for visiting Kedarnath, just months ahead of Punjab polls.

SAD spokesperson Dr Daljit Cheema taking a dig at the Channi-Sidhu duo said, "Navjot Sidhu was minister for around two and half years; Channi was also a minister and now became the CM. Both could have used their powers for the betterment of Punjab, but did not."

 

"Why they did not work earlier?" he inquired, saying "they can't fool people of Punjab."
