Amarinder Singh resigned as Punjab chief minister on Saturday, saying he felt 'humiliated' at the way the party handled the infighting in the state unit. A resolution requesting Sonia Gandhi to pick the next chief minister was passed unanimously in a meeting of the Congress Legislature Party. Party sources said the name of the new leader is likely to be announced in a CLP meeting called at 11 am on Sunday. Former Punjab Congress chief Sunil Jakhar, current state unit president Navjot Singh Sidhu and Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa are frontrunners for the post of the CLP leader, the sources said.from IndiaTV India: Google News Feed https://ift.tt/2Xwpf52
