After the humiliating defeat in the assembly elections, the churning phase is going on in the Congress. In the Congress Working Committee meeting on Sunday, Rahul Gandhi said that the youth should be given attention in future. Rahul Gandhi said that we need to look towards the future. Big leaders of Congress were also saddened by this.
Jairam Ramesh said that Congress should think in a new way to increase its demand. The damage caused in the recently held assembly elections was discussed in the meeting. On Ramesh’s strategy, AICC general secretary Priyanka Gandhi said that this time 45 percent of the people who were below 45 years of age were given tickets. Of this, 40 percent are women.
Sources say that Rahul Gandhi agreed with this argument. He said that in future the focus will be on youth. He also said that the BJP can be defeated in the Gujarat elections if the party moves ahead with a good strategy. However, a day after this meeting, it came to know that many senior leaders were surprised by Rahul Gandhi’s words.
