Sonia Gandhi to decide next CM of Punjab: Pawan Goel

Panchkula (Haryana), Sep 19 (ANI): Working president of the Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC) Pawan Goel said that Congress interim President Sonia Gandhi would take the decision on the next Chief Minister of state on September 19. However, he refused to comment on the prospective candidate for the post of Punjab CM. Speaking to media persons, Goel said: "A meeting of MLAs was held with Harish Rawat and Ajay Maken yesterday. The MLAs have sent their opinions to Sonia Gandhi. A resolution was passed that Congress chief's decision will be final on this matter. Today you will get to know her decision.” Captain Amarinder Singh on Sep 18 resigned as Punjab CM citing continued humiliation by the Congress leadership over the past two months.
