Late last night, the CWC accepted Rahul Gandhi’s resignation, a month after he officially resigned as party president, and Sonia was made the ‘interim president’.
The top decision-making body of Congress -Congress Working Committee (CWC) was convened today to discuss the probables for the post of Congress President after Rahul Gandhi tendered his resignation.
Senior Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad when asked about the recent trip of NSA Ajit Doval to Shopian, Kashmir, he said, "You (Ajit Doval) can take anyone with you by paying money and take them."
This resolution adopted by Congress seems more like an afterthought to save the party's reputation and douse questions over its leadership structure after several leaders expressed solidarity with the BJP govt's decision.
