"I had come to meet the Congress president. We discussed internal matters of the party and the development issue of Punjab. Whatever decision she takes as far as Punjab is concerned, we are ready for it," Singh said.


The Punjab CM also added that they are totally geared up for the assembly elections in 2022. However, he refused to comment on the role of Navjot Singh Sidhu in the upcoming polls. 


"I don't want to comment on Sidhu, I have come here to strengthen the party," he said.



This is to be noted that the central leadership had constituted a panel that held talks with Amarinder Singh and MLAs including Navjot Singh Sidhu, who has been articulating his differences with the chief minister. 


The central leadership is also reportedly seeking to bring about changes in the state unit by keeping the Chief Minister in the loop while also looking at a balance in terms of caste and community.
