Tussle in Punjab Congress unit spills over. Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday denied that he was scheduled to meet former Punjab Minister Navjot Singh Sidhu. “I don't know what fuss you all are making,” Mr. Gandhi told presspersons outside 10 Janpath, the residence of Congress president Sonia Gandhi. On Monday, Mr. Sidhu’s team had claimed that the cricketer-turned-politician would be meeting Mr. Gandhi and his sister and party general secretary, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra in Delhi. During Punjab Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh’s Delhi visit last week, he met only a three-member panel of the All India Congress Committee and not the Gandhis.
