A day after Navjot Singh Sidhu resigned as Punjab Congress chief, Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi said on Wednesday that he had spoken with Sidhu and invited him to dialogue.

Channi said, “The party president is the head of the family. The head should discuss the matters within the family. I have spoken to Sidhu Sahib today and invited him for dialogue. I have told him that the party’s ideology is supreme and a government follows that ideology. I have told him that if he has any issues, we can talk those out.”
