Punjab Congress Chief Amarinder Singh Raja Warring Resigns; Vijay Inder Singla Frontrunner
Amarinder Singh Raja Warring resigned as Punjab Congress president amid ongoing factional infighting ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections. The Congress high command, following organisational feedback led by newly appointed Punjab in-charge Sachin Pilot, decided to replace Warring. Former minister and MP Vijay Inder Singla has emerged as the frontrunner to succeed him, with other leaders like Pargat Singh, Charanjit Singh Channi, and Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa also considered. The leadership change aims to unify rival factions and strengthen the party's position ahead of polls.
