At an official event marking the change in leadership for the Punjab Congress, outgoing state president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring addressed concerns regarding internal party dynamics and candidate nominations. As Pargat Singh formally took over the role of Punjab Congress chief, Warring used the platform to emphasize his commitment to the party's central leadership.

Warring specifically addressed the potential influence of senior leader Sachin Pilot on the party's future electoral processes. He stated that even if Pilot were to deny him a ticket for future elections, his allegiance to Rahul Gandhi would remain unshaken. Warring described himself as a "soldier" of Rahul Gandhi, asserting that his support for the Congress party is unconditional and not dependent on individual political favors or nomination outcomes.

The event served as a public display of unity during a period of transition for the state unit. While the transition of power to Pargat Singh was the primary focus, Warring’s comments highlighted the ongoing internal discussions regarding the distribution of authority within the party's hierarchy. By framing his loyalty through the lens of a potential future conflict with Pilot, Warring sought to preemptively address rumors of internal friction or power struggles within the national organization.
