At a Punjab Congress event in Ludhiana, tensions emerged between supporters of Charanjit Singh Channi-Bharat Bhushan Ashu and Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring, with slogans exchanged but no major violence. Despite factional differences seen in other districts, Ludhiana's Congress projected unity ahead of senior leaders' visits, organizing events without expected protests.
