Cong Chief Sonia Gandhi Forms 3-member Team to Tackle Party Disquiet Over Sacrilege Issue

News 18  

Congress President Sonia Gandhi on Friday intervened in the disquiet in party’s Punjab unit over the sacrilege issue, and constituted a three-member committee to bring about a truce amongst the warring faction. The 3-member team will include Mallikarjun Kharge, JP Agarwal and Harish Rawat who will soon begin consultations with senior leaders of the state unit, the party said. With some legislators openly siding with Sidhu, senior party leaders feared an open rebellion that could threaten the party leadership in the state. Though numbers seem to be in favour of the chief minister for now, but statements by some senior MPs like Partap Singh Bajwa and Shamsher Singh Dullo have raised concerns in the party circle.
