Hello
Sources say that Sonia has been unwell since Tuesday which is why Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra returned to Delhi after walking seven kilometres in the Bharat Jodo Yatra.
During an election meeting in the state, Congress chief Kharge had likened Prime Minister Modi to Ravana. The Prime Minister had made it a big issue alleging that the Kharge was tutored to make the comparison.
The action came following investigations carried out by an inter-ministerial committee formed by the MHA in 2020.
With Kharge's victory, Rahul’s position as the most popular Opposition leader has found renewed endorsement.
The issue with Kharge’s ceremonial elevation to the top post in Congress is that the Gandhi loyalists still can’t think out of the box.
This is the first time that Sonia Gandhi has joined a public event after recovering from COVID-19 earlier this year.
Kharge's resignation, which the 80-year-old leader sent to Congress president Sonia Gandhi, is in line with the party's declared 'One person, One post' principle that was announced at the Udaipur 'Chintan Shivir' in May.
The decision comes in the view of recent developments in Rajasthan where his loyalists engaged in an open rebellion over a possible leadership change in the state.
Cong prez Sonia Gandhi has initiated discussions with senior party leaders across the country as a solution to the crisis and a decision on the official presidential candidate of the party remains elusive.
While Gehlot and Tharoor decided on their candidature after consulting with the Gandhi family, Tiwari may pitch himself in the fray as a rebel candidate.
