Punjab Congress Leaders Seek Leadership Change Amidst Internal Strife
Some important people in the Congress party in Punjab are unhappy with their leader, Amarinder Singh Raja Warring.
They're telling the party's top leaders in Delhi that they want a new leader.
They say Warring isn't doing a good job, especially against the current government.
They also lost an important election recently.
These leaders are saying that Warring isn't focusing on many areas where they should, and this could hurt the party in the next big election.
Party leaders have met with the central leadership to discuss their concerns, but no decisions have been made yet.
The leaders want Warring to be removed and replaced with a new leader.

Leaders claim Warring has a 'soft' stance against the ruling Aam Aadmi Party (AAP).
Infighting and lack of focus on crucial constituencies are also issues raised.
