The headline (Warring stays PPCC chief, Bajwa stays LoP) undersells the real tension underneath. Former CM Charanjit Channi, now heading the campaign committee, held a closed-door meeting at his Morinda residence with over 60 party leaders — including sitting MLAs — where the retention of Warring was the specific grievance being aired. Adding fuel: Sukhjinder Randhawa's meeting with Amit Shah the same week set off speculation about his own future in the party, though he's denied any connection to dissatisfaction with Congress. He says he only wanted to raise Punjab's border-district law and order situation with the Centre.
