Amarinder Singh upset over Punjab Congress chief post for Sidhu: Sources

Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh is upset with Navjot Singh Sidhu being made Punjab Congress chief by the party high command, according to sources.

After months of deliberations and discussions, Congress Punjab in-charge Harish Rawat said that Navjot Singh Sidhu would likely be announced as the Punjab Congress chief while Amarinder Singh would remain as the state's chief minister.

Rawat made this announcement a day after his meeting with Rahul Gandhi in New Delhi amid troubles in the party following a rift between Singh and Sidhu. The party took this decision months ahead of Punjab Assembly elections.
