Captain Amarinder Singh, Chief Minister of Punjab and Bhupesh Bhagel, Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh on Saturday aired their views on the future leadership of their party. They were speaking at the 17th edition of Hindustan Times Leadership Summit. Bhagel was upfront and clear that only Rahul Gandhi, who quit as president of the party following the Congress’s poor show in May 2019 Lok Sabha elections, can lead the party and the country. But Amarinder Singh evaded a direct response and said the Congress had a system in place to elect its new leader.
