Congress Appoints Sachin Pilot as Punjab In-Charge, Bhupesh Baghel Shifted to Assam
The Congress party has reshuffled its leadership ahead of the 2027 Punjab Assembly elections, appointing Sachin Pilot as the new AICC General Secretary in-charge of Punjab, replacing Bhupesh Baghel, who has been reassigned to Assam. This move aims to address factionalism within the Punjab unit, with Pilot tasked to unify competing camps and strengthen the party's organisation. Randeep Singh Surjewala was also given charge of Gujarat, retaining Karnataka responsibilities. Other state-level changes were made to bolster election preparations across key states.
