Ludhiana : Congress leader Rahul Gandhi announced incumbent-chief minister Charanjit Singh Channi as the party’s chief minister candidate.
During a rally in Ludhiana he said, “People of Punjab have said, we want someone from a poor-home as the chief minister. Somebody who understands the plight, hunger and fears of the poor. Because that’s what Punjab needs.”
“This is a great fight. I can’t do it alone. I can only fight for the CM position with the people of Punjab,” Channi said, in his speech.
