Jalandhar MP Charanjit Singh Channi chose to skip Rahul Gandhi’s speech in Lok Sabha on Wednesday and instead attended a rally in Faridkot. AdvertisementSpeaking to The Indian Express, a leader supporting Channi said too much should not be read into Channi not being present in Parliament during Gandhi’s speech. The Faridkot event, meanwhile, has once again highlighted ongoing factionalism within Punjab Congress. Leaders linked to Warring’s group, including district Congress president Navdeep Singh Babbu Brar, stayed away. During his visit, Baghel would hold meetings with the party’s district presidents and brainstorm with party workers.
