Dispute between Amarinder, Navjot would be good for Congress, says Harish Rawat

Senior Congress leader and the party's in-charge for Punjab, Harish Rawat on September 08 dismissed reports of friction between state Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh and Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president Navjot Singh Sidhu, and said if there is any dispute between the two leaders in future, it would be beneficial for the party.

Speaking to ANI, Rawat said, "Punjab is the land of braves. People there put their opinion very strongly there and it looks like they will fight. But, there is nothing like that, and they find solutions to their problems. If there would be a dispute between Punjab CM and state Congress chief, it would be a plus (point) for party."
