The Times of India Delhi|July 19, 2021

Cong snubs objections by Capt & netas, appoints Sidhu PCC chief

Sidhu’s appointment attests to the niche the cricketer-turned-politician has carved for himself since he left BJP and joined Congress in 2017 assembly polls and the way he positioned himself as the anti-Amarinder Singh voice in the Punjab Congress apparatus as well as an anti-Badal campaigner. It also indicated a decisive say of Priyanka Gandhi in party affairs. Many believe the way he held the AAP threat over the party, with speculation he could defect if he was ignored, also played a role in his elevation.
