Fear of Congress split in Punjab, Sadhu-Chani said – all is well, read political updates

Former Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amrinder Singh has finally quit the Congress party. Amrinder has sent his resignation to party president Sonia Gandhi. At the same time, he announced the formation of a new party. He named his party ‘Punjab Lok Congress’. After resigning from the post of CM, Captain Amrinder had already said that he would leave the Congress. He had announced to form his own party. This threatens to break up the Congress in Punjab. However, on Wednesday, Navjot Singh Sadhu and Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channy came together and tried to convey the message that everything is fine in Punjab.
Earlier, former chief minister Capt Amrinder Singh on Tuesday tendered his resignation from the party to Congress national president Sonia Gandhi. The captain then announced the name of his new party. He said that the name of his new party would be Punjab Lok Congress. At the same time, Amrinder Singh said that Navjot Singh Sadhu kept insulting Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi at his request.
