Punjab Congress Factional Feud Continues Despite Mediation Efforts

In fact, when the rebellion started in the Punjab Congress on the issue of leadership change and declaring a CM face before the elections, Rahul Gandhi was abroad. During this time, Priyanka Gandhi had sent a team to Punjab. After this, Bhupesh Baghel, the in-charge of Punjab Congress, and KC Venugopal, the organization general secretary of the All India Congress Committee, were also engaged in ending this factional feud. The rebel leaders have met Baghel and Venugopal, and the report of these two leaders is on the table of Rahul Gandhi and national president Mallikarjun Kharge. The report of Priyanka Gandhi's team is also with the high command. After all this advertising exercise, neither the rebellion has ended nor the differences in the Punjab Congress. The latest example was seen on the stage of the Congress decorated during the Rakhad Punya Mela in Baba Bakala Sahib on 28 August. Former CM Charanjit Singh Channi's faction held a political conference in the presence of state president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring and state in-charge Bhupesh Baghel. Sources say that the party did not give the conference a new format.
