    Cabinet minister Kuldeep Singh Dhaliwal and party MLA Amansher Singh Sherry Kalsi were named as the in-charge and co-in-charge respectively for the Dera Baba Nanak seat, which fell vacant after sitting MLA Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa was elected to the Lok Sabha from the Gurdaspur parliamentary constituency in the general election.
    For the Gidderbaha assembly seat, Cabinet minister Aman Arora has been named as the AAP's in-charge and MLA Davinder Singh Ladi Dhose co-in-charge, the party said on 'X'.
