We will settle all disputes. We will give respect to all leaders, Sidhu said over the alleged clashes that erupted in the party after it released the third list of candidates on Sunday.
The dissidence in Congress is less compared to rivals, said Punjab party chief Navjot Singh Sidhu amid the talks of factionalism in the party ahead of the upcoming Assembly polls.
The party has been facing protests over the choice of candidates after it released the third list on Sunday. "We will settle all disputes. We will give respect to all leaders," Sidhu said.

When asked about how many seats the party is aiming to win, Sidhu said, "I am not an astrologer, I cannot predict. But we will win an additional five to ten seats."
Over Congress's chief minister face in Punjab, Sidhu said, "We are expecting clarity from the party high command."
Sidhu took a jibe at Punjab Lok Congress chief Amaridner Singh by calling him a "defunct engine" after the latter predicted an "abysmal" defeat for Navjot Singh Sidhu from Amritsar East on Monday, saying that Sidhu won this seat in the past only with the support of the BJP.
Navjot Singh Sidhu on Tuesday also attacked his competitor for the Amritsar East seat, Shiromani Akali Dal leader Bikram Singh Majithia. "Majithia is a mafia. He will run away," Sidhu said, while adding, "Arvind Kejriwal is licking Majithi's boots."Bikram Majithia is currently facing an FIR by Punjab Police in a Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act (NDPS) case. He was earlier granted interim bail by the high court on the condition of cooperating with the investigation.
