Amarinder Singh Raja Warring Resigns as Punjab Congress Chief; Vijay Inder Singla Frontrunner
Amarinder Singh Raja Warring has resigned as Punjab Congress chief amid ongoing factionalism within the state unit ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections. The Congress high command, after extensive consultations and a report by Punjab in-charge Sachin Pilot, decided to replace Warring. Vijay Inder Singla, a former minister and Congress Working Committee member, is the frontrunner to succeed him. Other contenders include Pargat Singh, Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa, Charanjit Singh Channi, and others. The party aims to unify different factions ahead of the polls.
