Chandigarh, January 19
A day after the AAP announced Bhagwant Mann as its CM face, chorus grew in the Congress to name Charanjit Singh Channi as the party’s CM candidate. Cabinet Minister Brahm Mohindra has urged the party high command to clear the doubts about the CM candidate in Punjab. He is second minister after Rana Gurjeet Singh to seek Channi as the CM face.
Mohindra said, “There should not be any confusion in the party about announcing the chief ministerial candidate when there is already one who proved himself beyond everybody’s expectations.”
He said it had become all the more important when AAP had announced Mann as its CM candidate and SAD had already been projecting Sukhbir Badal as its CM nominee. “Under such circumstances, the Congress cannot afford to leave any vacuum,” he said. —
