Chandigarh, October 2
Congress leader Randeep Singh Surjewala on Saturday claimed that it was not party president Sonia Gandhi who made Capt Amarinder Singh quit as the Punjab chief minister but he had to quit after 78 party MLAs sought his removal.
Surjewala’s remarks came as Amarinder Singh had accused the Congress leadership of “humiliating” him after he tendered his resignation as the Punjab CM.
Amarinder Singh was replaced by Charanjit Singh Channi after the Congress chose him as the new legislative party leader last month.
