Regarding the letter to the Congress leadership, Sibal said, "No one has come forward. Concerns have not gone away."


New delhi date. Sunday 30 August 2020

23 party leaders wrote a letter to Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi calling for change. One of them is former Union Minister and senior party leader Kapil Sibal. He says the concerns raised by him were neither discussed nor shared at the Congress working committee meeting. Not only that, when the leaders who wrote the letter were attacked, no leader came between them.

Sibal says Congress needs a full-time president and the concerns raised in the letter should be addressed soon. The Congress has always accused the BJP of not abiding by the constitution and destroying the very foundations of democracy. The Congress leader said what do we want. We want to abide by the party constitution. Who cares.

The former Union Minister said the letter was a full-time and effective leadership, which is seen and active. Demanded the immediate establishment of a collective institutional leadership mechanism for the election of the CWC and the revival of the party. But the letter sparked a debate within the party. Which became a test of loyalty for chief ministers and state units. He was loyal to Gandhianism and sided with the letter writer.

Sibal said the CWC was to be informed of what the letter said. This is the fundamental thing that should have happened, he said. This is written by 23 people. Definitely, we should question if you find an error in anything we have written. The meeting did not address any of our concerns or requests. Yet we have been called dissatisfied.
