Chandigarh, April 10
Amrinder Singh Brar, the new chief of the Punjab Congress, promised to take every party leader and worker along to strengthen the organisation in the state, where the faction-ridden party was ousted from power in the recently held Assembly polls.
New Congress Legislature Party (CLP) leader in the state, Partap Singh Bajwa, said he will fight tooth and nail for the rights of Punjab and its public.
Former Punjab minister Bharat Bhushan Ashu, who has been appointed as the working president of the state Congress, and Deputy CLP leader Raj Kumar Chabbewal too said the entire state unit will work as a team.
Amrinder Singh Brar, also called Raja Warring, was appointed the party’s new Punjab chief in place of Navjot Singh Sidhu by Congress president Sonia Gandhi.
Warring, who was the transport minister in the last Congress government, won the Assembly elections from the Gidderbaha constituency.
