Punjab Congress crisis deepens as Channi sharpens ‘oust Warring’ pitch at key huddle
Charanjit Singh Channi intensified calls for the ouster of Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee president Amrinder Singh Raja Warring during a key meeting aimed at addressing the party's leadership crisis. Despite efforts by Bhupesh Baghel, the All India Congress Committee's general secretary for Punjab, to mediate, dissenting leaders expressed their refusal to accept Warring's leadership ahead of the February 2027 Assembly elections. The gathering highlighted the deepening rift within the party, with many leaders reportedly supporting Channi's push for Warring's removal.
