Navjot Sidhu to meet senior Congress leaders in Delhi for discussing 'organisational matters'

New Delhi/IBNS: Cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu will be in Delhi Thursday to meet senior Congress leaders and discuss "organisational matters".

Singh will meet Congress general secretary KC Venugopal and Harish Rawat following an uncomfortable truce with new Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi.

Punjab in-charge Harish Rawat said the meeting has been called to discuss  "organisational matters" of the state Congress.

"Sh. Navjot Singh Sidhu, President Punjab Congress will be meeting me and Sh. Venugopal ji for discussion on certain organisational matters pertaining to Punjab Pardesh Congress Committee at Venugopal ji's office on 14th October at 6 PM," Rawat tweeted.

Earlier this month, Sidhu had quit the post of Punjab Congress supremo, making his displeasure felt with the new Chief Minister's picks for cabinet.

But a day later, he had agreed to continue with the post after he had accepted the Chief Minister's invitation for a meeting. The two had agreed to the formation of a coordination committee to monitor the progress of Congress's 2017 Punjab poll promises.

The 57-year-old, however, is yet to formally withdraw his resignation.
