CM Baghel gets his man in as PCC chief. Mohan Markam has his work cut out ahead of the bypolls
The appointment of a new Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president in Chhattisgarh is an affirmation of life in the grand old party, struck by a sort of decision making paralysis in the aftermath of the Lok Sabha rout and the subsequent resignation of Rahul Gandhi from the post of party president. On June 28, tribal MLA Mohan Markam took over the job, replacing Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel who had held the post since October 2014. (Incidentally, the appointment was made in the name of exCongress president Rahul Gandhi, who has stated that he will not take any decisions and leave them to his successor.)
