Alankar Sawai, K. Raju, K.B. Byju, and Kaushal Vidhyarthi, along with Kanishka Singh, are said to close to Gandhi, and form his circle of advisers, who organise his schedule and even control access to him.
Azad also took a dig at congresses over his resignation and added, "Modi is an excuse, they have had an issue with me since the G23 letter was written. They never wanted anyone to write to them, question them."
Former J&K Congress chief GA Mir on Sunday said that Ghulam Nabi Azad would meet the fate of Punjab’s former Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh, who left the Congress and shook hands with the BJP.
If sources in the Congress are to be believed, hints were dropped to Gehlot to lead the show as Congress president during his recent meeting with Sonia Gandhi.
His resignation comes weeks after he resigned from the post of Chairman of the Jammu and Kashmir Congress campaign committee.
According to the sources, the development came after Congress chief Sonia Gandhi on Tuesday appointed Vikar Rasool Wani as the party's J-K unit president and Raman Bhalla as working president.
