The Congress Working Committee (CWC) on Saturday “unanimously” rejected party president Rahul Gandhi’s offer to step down and urged him to overhaul the party.
But the last word may have not been spoken as Mr. Gandhi is believed to be adamant about his decision to quit from the post, which he had assumed in December 2017.
‘Ordinary worker’
He is also learnt to have told party leaders to consider “someone outside the Gandhi family” as his replacement and expressed his desire to function as an “ordinary worker”.
Though the Congress “officially” denied it, Mr. Gandhi is learnt to have asked the party “not to drag in his sister Priyanka while looking for his replacement”.
“Congress President, Shri Rahul Gandhi, in his address to the CWC, offered his resignation as the party president. The CWC unanimously rejected the same and requested the Congress president for his leadership and guidance in these challenging times,” said the resolution.
