Amritsar, November 13 (Daily Kiran) : Congress leaders Sachin Pilot, Dr. Raj Kumar Verka, and Sukhwinder Singh Danny Bundala convened in Amritsar on Thursday to discuss preparations for the upcoming 2027 assembly elections. The meeting focused on organizational unity and ticket selection strategies.
Dr. Verka dismissed recent protests during Charanjit Singh Channi’s rally, while Pilot criticized the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government. “I have met with all party workers to gather feedback on strengthening our campaign,” Pilot stated, expressing optimism about the party’s prospects. He noted a strong enthusiasm among workers who are eager for Congress to lead Punjab under Rahul Gandhi’s guidance. “The AAP government’s exit is assured, and the people will bless Congress,” he added.
Dr. Verka highlighted Pilot’s efforts to connect with both senior and junior party members, boosting morale within the ranks. “Our goal is to elevate Congress and prepare for the upcoming elections by energizing our workers,” he said.
In response to the protests marked by black flags during Pilot’s bicycle rally, Dr. Verka remarked that the AAP supporters were outnumbered. “While they waved black flags, we had a crowd of ten thousand,” he pointed out.

Sukhwinder Singh Danny Bundala emphasized the turnout at the district Congress office, noting the strong attendance of party workers and officials. “Even at 11 PM, the enthusiasm among Congress workers is palpable, and the crowd reflects their love for the party,” he said, asserting that Congress is poised for a significant performance in the 2027 elections. He expressed confidence that under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, along with Sachin Pilot and Pratap Singh Bajwa, Congress would form the government in Punjab.
Bundala also addressed the ticket distribution process, stating that it lies within the purview of the party’s high command. He affirmed that while all workers have the right to voice their opinions, final decisions will be based on merit, selecting candidates who can secure victories in the assembly elections.
