“I was discussing while traveling in the vehicle about who would lead Punjab— the media calls that fellow 'CM candidate’. Both Channi ji and Sidhu ji told me that the biggest question in Punjab is who would lead Punjab from Congress,” Rahul added. 

He further said, “Both of them assured me that the decision (taken by the party) would be acceptable to all, and I was very happy. ”
