PCC president Capt Amarinder Singh has made it clear that the party will go by seniority alone while forming its ministry, if voted to power. Both party candidates and bureaucrats have been making a beeline for the PCC chief’s office post-poll.
“This will ensure there is no bickering as we have only a limited number of 17 ministries”. He said young MLAs, including one-time legislators, would have to wait for their turnand party general secretary and Dhuri candidate Arvind Khanna could serve as a Parliamentary Secretary.
Senior bureaucrats and police officers were present at the Lohri celebrations of the grandson of Amarinder’s former media adviser Bharatinder Chahal two days back. Among those who attended were Sudhir Mittal and ADGPs Rajinder Singh and SK Sharma. Sources said Rajinder Singh, who had been suspended during thr SAD-BJP rule, was among those in the race for the post of DGP, Punjab, if the Congress returned to power. The PCC chief will soon leave for Uttar Pradesh to campaign for the party in areas with a large Sikh population.
