Kharge said Congress learnt valuable lessons from recent Assembly polls!?
Accordingly congress Parliamentary party chairperson sonia gandhi and rahul Gandhi were among the 76 leaders who attended the meeting that saw a discussion on recent assembly poll results, the lok sabha election and the current political situation in the country, including issues related to Parliament. In his remarks at the CWC meet, Kharge said the congress has learnt valuable lessons from the recent assembly polls and urged the party workers to focus on the lok sabha election. The congress is committed to not repeating the same mistakes, he said.
Meanwhile this is the first CWC meeting after the party’s debacle in the Madhya Pradesh, chhattisgarh and rajasthan polls. The congress, however, won the electoral battle in Telangana. At the meeting, the party’s top brass discussed the assembly poll results and the in-charges of Madhya Pradesh, chhattisgarh and rajasthan explained the reasons behind the disappointing performance. Noting that the outcomes of the elections were “disappointing”, Kharge said the congress has conducted a preliminary analysis of the results and identified the reasons behind its poor performance. “Despite the results, there are some positive indicators, such as the vote share in these states, that give us definite hope that given due attention, we can certainly turn things around,” he said.
“We have learnt valuable lessons from the mistakes we have made and are committed to not repeating them,” Kharge asserted. He said the fourth meeting of the indian National Inclusive Developmental Alliance (INDIA) was held on december 19 and it was unanimously decided that the seat-sharing talks must start immediately. “The lok sabha election is not too far, we do not have much time left. I would urge everyone to concentrate on the actionable points and necessary steps that can be taken for the upcoming general election,” the congress chief said.
Asked about the Bharat Jodo yatra 2.0 proposal, Venugopal said, “The congress president told rahul Gandhiji that he is getting the feedback from party workers and leaders from across the country that he should do a second yatra from east to west and after that, all the CWC members unanimously requested him for the same.” “The details of the yatra (if it takes place) … and the decision on the yatra will be taken without any delay,” he added.
