Nearly a month after Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president Navjot Singh Sidhu quit following the party’s disastrous debacle in the State Assembly elections, the Congress appointed Amarinder Singh Brar as its State chief.
Mr. Brar was Transport Minister in the previous dispensation and won in the recent polls from the Gidderbaha Assembly constituency.
The Congress also settled the question of the Congress Legislative Party chief by appointing former Rajya Sabha MP Pratap Singh Bajwa to the post.
