“He will continue in his role as AICC In-charge for Punjab,” the statement added.
It may be mentioned that on Sunday, Arvinder Singh Lovely had resigned from the DPCC chief's post citing several reasons including forging an alliance with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) for the Lok Sabha election.
The resignation of Lovely was later accepted by Kharge. (with PTI inputs)
