Baghel meets Venugopal, hands over report on Punjab leadership issue

“I visited Punjab for six days, where I met the leaders and heard all of them, including at the Punjab Congress office and during one-on-one meetings. After holding discussions with Punjab leaders, I submitted my report to KC Venugopal,” Baghel told reporters in New Delhi.

The report assumes importance as the Congress’ Punjab unit remains divided, with former chief minister Charanjit Singh Channi seeking to head the state unit while the party’s high command favours Amarinder Singh Raja Warring.

“There is no need to change the already announced setup of the Punjab Congress. This isn’t child’s play,” Baghel said after the meeting, reiterating the stand he had taken during his Chandigarh visit.
