Pilot in key role as Cong eyes Punjab polls win
New Delhi, Congress leader Sachin Pilot is emerging as the party's star performer in taking the organization forward, particularly as Punjab gears up for its assembly polls. The youth poster boy for the party has been entrusted with the significant task of restoring order in the state where infighting amongst factions is threatening the party's prospects.
Pilot was recently appointed as the general secretary in-charge of Punjab, supplanting Bhupesh Baghel, who will now oversee Assam. The Congress organized a major reshuffle on Saturday, promoting Pilot to this crucial role. With the elections in Punjab just a few months away, Pilot's primary challenge will be to quell the internal divisions and devise a winning strategy against the incumbent governments of the AAP, BJP, and Shiromani Akali Dal.
