    Rahul Gandhi Holds Key Meeting with Punjab Congress Leaders; Bajwa Says Channi, Warring and Singla Also Present

    Rahul Gandhi has held a meeting with five senior leaders of Punjab Congress today (June 21). Congress national president Kharge will also be present in the meeting. This meeting is considered very important. During this, Bajwa said that whatever responsibility will be given by the party high command. We will play it. The entire Congress is united.

    “I just want to say one thing. In 2024, the Congress had won 8 of the 14 Lok Sabha seats, including one in Chandigarh and seven in Punjab. When we can win 8 Lok Sabha seats in mid-term, why can’t we win now? God bless us. In my opinion, the Congress will get 70 to 80 seats.

    Due to this, the observers put up by the Congress high command have submitted their report to the party. In such a situation, it is now believed that the roles of leaders will now be decided by the party.

    Trouble for the factionalism party

    The voice of factionalism and change was being raised in the Congress high command for a long time. In such a situation, the party had deployed three observers, who have taken the opinion of all the MPs from the party president in Delhi. After this, this meeting is going to be held. It will be attended by 5 top leaders, including president Amarinder Singh Raja Wading, CLP leaders Pratap Singh Bajwa, Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa, Vijay Inder Singla and Charanjit Singh Channi.

    Advised becoming a team player in the rally

    Rahul Gandhi is very serious about Punjab. He has held 4 meetings so far. Earlier, on May 30, a big meeting was called at the residence of Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, in which Rahul Gandhi and KC Venugopal were also present. The strategy for the upcoming assembly elections (2027) was discussed in this meeting. However, he did not interact with the media.

    On May 1, 2026, Rahul Gandhi held a special interactive meeting with the district presidents of Punjab, Jammu and Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh. In this, he advised the leaders to give up the VIP culture and strengthen the organization at the grassroots level.

    On February 28, Rahul Gandhi reached Barnala in Punjab. Here, along with Mallikarjun Kharge, he gave a strong message to the leaders of the Punjab Congress to end the discord and work together as a ‘team player’ for the upcoming elections.

    On January 22, the Congress high command (Mallikarjun Kharge, Rahul Gandhi and KC Venugopal) had discussed the current political situation in the state with senior leaders of the Punjab Congress in New Delhi.
