In the new formula, Capt Amarinder Singh will remain the chief minister while Sidhu will be appointed the president of Punjab Congress. Punjab Congress may have finally achieved a truce between Amarinder Singh and Sidhu who have been at loggerheads for months in the run-up to the Punjab assembly elections.
