Captain Amarinder Singh, who resigned as Punjab Chief Minister after months of factional feud in the state unit of the Congress, today conveyed his best wishes to his successor, Charanjit Singh Channi. Mr Channi's name was declared today by the party.
Mr Singh's message was posted on Twitter by Raveen Thukral, his media advisor.
"My best wishes to Charanjit Singh Channi. I hope he's able to keep the border state of Punjab safe and protect our people from the growing security threat from across the border," Mr Singh said in the message.
The former Indian Army Captain has in the past few days repeatedly emphasised the theme of national security in the context of the political crisis in his state that led to his replacement.
