As soon as the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) declared Bhagwant Mann as the CM face, cheers for Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu also echoed from the AAP office.
Sources say that the Sidhu camp watched with joy as they now feel that this has strengthened the opportunity to project Sidhu as the CM face of the Congress.
A few days back, an advertisement tweeted by the party had upset Sidhu as it seemed Charanjit Singh Channi As the face of CM for the upcoming elections.
Sidhu’s supporters got in touch with the top leadership and asked what the tweet was about. He was told that the tweet did not depict any decision of the Gandhi family. So far no chief minister’s face has been revealed and for now the Congress wants to play safe by insisting on whose collective leadership the election will be fought. Sidhu and Channi.
Media department head Randeep Surjewala said, “Charanji Singh Channi is the head of the government and he will be the face of the government. Sidhu is the head of the organization and he is its face. Both the faces are needed to contest the elections.”

But the discomfort is very clear. Sidhu With Mann becoming the Chief Minister, his hopes have been raised.
Both have a lot in common. Former comedian Mann has a sense of humour that many feel only Sidhu can match, whose one-liners and experience in comedy shows can be a crowd puller. Interestingly, the two met in September this year, when AAP had distanced itself from Mann. This had fueled speculation that Mann might have jumped off the ship.
While in the last few days Charanjit Singh Channi In the eyes of the Gandhi family and the top Congress leadership, Sidhu has the edge when it comes to oratory and witty counter-arguments. Punjabis love flamboyant and high decibel campaigns. Sidhu’s camp thinks this means he can equal Mann. AAP is now emerging as a serious contender for Congress. Sidhu, with his stoic style, will continue to attack you relentlessly and will now do the same with Mann, which may tilt the scale in his favor. At least that’s what the former cricketer feels.
In fact, with the announcement of AAP, an agreement was reached at the Congress headquarters. When the ED raided Channi’s nephew, the party came out in support of Channi. SidhuAlso asked to condemn the raid. In return, Randeep Surjewala is taken to Chandigarh to hold a press conference with Sidhu only to make it clear that Sidhu matters. It was a six for the Sidhu camp.
