A new Chief Minister of Punjab will be decided after the state election, the Congress said today, attempting to stave off a brewing Navjot Singh Sidhu versus Charanjit Singh Channi clash at least till early next year. Harish Rawat, the Congress's Punjab in-charge, also told NDTV today that Navjot Sidhu "is the Punjab Congress chief", shutting down talk about the sulking cricketer-turned-politician's resignation last month, just four months before the party seeks re-election in assembly polls.
