Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said the party will go into the Punjab Assembly polls with a CM face and the decision on it will be taken soon after consulting party workers.

Addressing a virtual rally in Jalandhar, Gandhi said Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi and state party president Navjot Singh Sidhu have assured him that whoever is chosen as the CM face, the other will support him. Over the past several weeks, both Channi and Sidhu have indicated, directly or indirectly, keenness to be declared as the party's CM face. Differences in the party continued to simmer even after the ouster of Amarinder Singh as the CM and Channi's elevation to the post. Earlier in the day, in a show of unity, Rahul Gandhi led party candidates to the Amritsar's Golden Temple, where they offered prayers and sat for a langar. Rahul at the rally said both Channi and Sidhu told him that the biggest question in Punjab is who will lead the Congress in the state.
