Called him, told party is supreme: Punjab CM Charanjit Singh Channi on Sidhus resignation
Amid heavy political developments in Punjab Congress, Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi, on Wednesday, September 29, said that he had called former Punjab Congress Chief Navjot Singh Sidhu and told him that party was supreme; it was above all.
His remarks came a day after Navjot Singh Sidhu tendered his resignation as the Punjab Congress Chief.
Reportedly, he resigned over the new cabinet reshuffling in the Channi government. His resignation came just days after Channi took over as Punjab CM from Captain Amrinder Singh.
Channi, who was addressing media persons during a press conference, said, Whoever is the party president, is head of the family. I had called him (Navjot Singh Sidhu) & told him that the party is supreme. I have spoken to him on phone and told him let’s sit, talk it out and resolve the issue.
He also said that the Punjab government would pay the bills of 53 lakh families who could not pay electricity bills.
₹75-80 % of consumers come under the two-kilowatt category. Their last bill will be taken care of, by us. The disconnected electricity connections will be reinstalled, he added.
Reportedly, a tough fight began in the state of Punjab for the post of State Party President ahead of the Assembly polls.
