CHANDIGARH: Amid the ongoing divide in the Punjab Congress, AICC state in-charge Harish Rawat on Thursday said that all is not well in the party. He, however, claimed that state Congress is heading towards the “all is well” situation.

“I won’t say all is well, but we are heading towards it. I do not want to hide from you. We are trying to solve the issue,” Rawat told reporters here. This comes after Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee general secretary Pargat Singh on Sunday questioned Rawat over the decision that Congress will contest the 2022 Punjab Assembly elections under the leadership of Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh.

Rawat said, “Those angry ministers who did not come to meet me, I thank them. The government did some things very well which we could not appreciate. It is due to the Amarinder Singh government that the Bargari case is out of the clutches of the CBI.”

A section of Punjab Congress leaders have raised a banner of revolt against Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh and said that a change should be made in the state if needed.
