Charanjit Singh Channi skips Rahul Gandhi Lok Sabha speech, attends party rally in Faridkot instead

Charanjit Singh Channi skipped Rahul Gandhi’s Lok Sabha speech to lead a protest in Faridkot. Channi joined a dharna over the Pharmacy Officer recruitment exam controversy. A supporter said, “The event was planned beforehand.” This move showed deep factionalism within the Punjab Congress as senior leaders chose sides during protests.
