No problem of leadership in Congress, all leaders stand with Rahul Gandhi: Salman Khurshid

New Delhi, 22 November 2020, Sunday

"There is no crisis of leadership in the party and Sonia Gandhi as well as Rahul Gandhi are getting all kinds of cooperation and support within the party," said Salman Khurshid, another senior leader of the party, who is now being questioned from within the party after the Congress' poor showing in the Bihar elections. Everyone can see this.

Khurshid, one of the leaders close to the Gandhi family, said that while every leader in the Congress has the opportunity to express his views, expressing his views outside the party is detrimental to the party.

Khurshid had said this after a recent statement by Kapil Sibal on the party's disappointing performance, indirectly targeting Sibal. "The party leadership listens to me and those who are criticizing in the media have also been given a chance," he said. I don't understand where the issue came from.

On Sibal and Chidambaram's remarks, Khurshid said, "I do not disagree with what they said but there is no need to go to the media and show it to the world. Every time there is an analysis after the election. There is no quarrel in the party over it. But this is what will happen. Where the mistake has been made has to be discussed. Leaders who demand a full-time chairman in the party should talk about it in the meetings held in the party.

He said that Sonia Gandhi has been holding the post of acting president for more than a year and how can it be decided that this period is too long ... If the election process for the new president has taken time, there will be a reason behind it. ... So the presidency is vacant in other parties too. Why is the media emphasizing only on the Congress ... Everyone in the Congress is working together and the reason for the delay in the presidential election is also the Corona period. Is standing.
