Although the prevailing opinion was that elections should be avoided, it was earlier decided to go ahead with the elections if the meeting demanded. Leaders like P Chidambaram and Ajay Maken have taken the stand that elections should be held. However, Mallikarjun Kharge announced the decision not to hold the election considering the majority opinion.
Meanwhile, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh informed that the decision to nominate the working committee was unanimous. No one objected. The new committee will be nominated by the National President. The working committee will cover all sections. Equal importance will be given to all categories. Congress is pushing a new message through party reorganization. He said Mallikarjun Kharge will address the Congress plenary session on Saturday and Rahul Gandhi on Sunday.
The 85th Plenary Session will discuss matters such as preparing the party to face the upcoming Lok Sabha and Assembly elections. Plenary discussions are the beginning of all the crucial decisions in the Congress.
The main agenda of the plenary session will be to dissolve the Congress considering the current situation of the country. 2024 general elections is the main focus of the conference. The main objective of this two-day meeting will be to assess how much initiative the Congress will take in forming opposition unity against the BJP in the elections.
Meanwhile, the Gandhi family did not attend the Congress Steering Committee meeting
The Gandhi family stayed away from the steering committee meeting ahead of the Congress plenary session that started in Raipur from Friday.
The assessment of political observers on this matter is that this is sending a clear message that Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge has taken hold of the party. Sources said that the Gandhi family’s absence from the meeting was a clear indication that Kharge had been given full authority and did not want to send a message that decision-making in the party was influenced by the Gandhi family.
