rahul gandhi

Will it be a fresh start? Will it be a case of continuity? These are some of the questions Congress will ponder over as all members of the Congress Working Committee, general secretaries and in-charges resigned from their posts.

On Wednesday, when Congress’ interim president officially absolved herself of the responsibility, with veteran Mallikarjun Kharge taking over, Sonia Gandhi acknowledged that she is "feeling a sigh of relief".

With former party president Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra gaining attention down south, the party is hoping its fortunes will turn north as it is eyeing 125 seats in the 182-seat Gujarat assembly election.

Mayawati, who supported the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) governments, accused the Congress of neglecting the legacy of the “messiah of the downtrodden” Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar and Dalits when it was in power.

Hours after Mallikarjun Kharge was elected the Grand Old Party’s first non-Gandhi president in more than two decades, the veteran politician he vowed to fight against the fascist forces who are attacking every democratic institution under the guise of communalism.

Reacting to the allegations of irregularities in the Congress presidential election, former Congress president Rahul Gandhi put his faith in Madhusudan Mistry, who is the chairman of the Congress’ Central Election Authority (CEA). 

Congress will enter a new dawn as the party’s first non-Gandhi president in more than two decades is expected to be announced by the afternoon today.

He also pointed out how soaring prices of LPG cylinders, petrol and diesel are adversely affecting common people.

Days after Congress president post candidate Shashi Tharoor talked about an "uneven playing field" in polls, the party’s Central Election Authority chairman, Madhusudan Mistry, on Wednesday said that polling will be done through a secret ballot.

Congress president Rahul Gandhi interacted with youths over the issue of unemployment during the Karnataka leg of the yatra.
