Disgruntled Punjab Congressmen meet Harish Rawat

AAP says ongoing infighting within Congress is harming State’s interests

A day after raising the banner of revolt against Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh, four Ministers and some Congress MLAs on Wednesday met All India Congress Committee in charge of Punjab affairs Harish Rawat at Dehradun to apprise him of their concerns and disappointment against Capt. Singh. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), meanwhile, said the ongoing infighting within the Congress was harming the interests of the State. Charanjit Channi, one of the Ministers who met Mr. Rawat told The Hindu that all concerns were shared with the party in charge and he promised them to take up the issues with the central leadership. “All the issues that were raised and discussed by us yesterday [at a meeting in Chandigarh] were conveyed to Mr. Rawat. He assured us of taking up our concerns with the high command and get back to us,” said Mr. Channi.
