The Congress is slated to hold a CWC meeting this month and ahead of the meet, the party has tried to reach out to the dissenters, who have demanded the meeting of the highest decision-making body of the party.
Former Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad had written for an early meeting of the Congress Working Committee (CWC). Azad in his letter had pointed out the need for a permanent president and to discuss party affairs in the present scenario. He had reiterated his demand for organisational elections in the party.
Kapil Sibal, a senior Congressman, had launched an attack on Rahul Gandhi, questioning who in the party was making decisions. The party leaders’ desire for organisational elections, he claimed, had not been met. Sibal had stated at a news conference in New Delhi, “Our party has no president, so we don’t know who makes all of the choices. We both know and don’t know.”
On October 30, bypolls will be held in 15 states and union territories, including Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Haryana, Maharashtra, Himachal Pradesh, and West Bengal, with results expected on November 2.
