Ahead of the announcement of the Congress chief ministerial candidate for the Punjab assembly elections, party's state unit chief Navjot Singh Sidhu on Sunday said that everyone will follow Rahul Gandhi's decision.
"Nothing great was ever achieved without an act of decision .... Warm welcome to our leading light Rahul Ji, who comes to give clarity to Punjab .... All will abide by his decision !!!" Sidhu said in a tweet.
Earlier, Congress Punjab in-charge Harish Chaudhary said that Rahul Gandhi will announce the party's Chief Ministerial face for the Punjab Assembly polls on February 6 during his virtual rally in Ludhiana.
In an apparent dig at the Congress top leadership, Punjab unit chief Navjot Singh Sidhu on Thursday had said that the "people at the top" want a weak Chief Minister who can dance to their tunes.
Punjab will go to the polls on February 20. The counting of votes will take place on March 10.
