Congress Sticks With Warring Despite Channi's Opposition, BJP May Benefit

The Indian National Congress has reaffirmed its support for Amrinder Singh Raja Warring as its Punjab chief, rejecting internal dissent. Former Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi has attempted to oppose this decision but the party's high command has remained firm. The internal disagreement within Congress over leadership has created a visible rift within the party's Punjab unit. Political analysts suggest that this infighting could work in favour of the BJP by weakening Congress's organizational unity in the state.
