Congress chief P Chidambaram is talking to NDTV over the Congress’ rebels meet that was held on Wednesday.  Mr Chidambaram stated that Congress members are all for collective accountability and shared decision-making.   

A gaggle of 18 Congress leaders — a mixture of G-23 dissidents and a few ‘newcomers’ — spoke in favour of a “collective, inclusive management” after a gathering on the home of senior chief Ghulam Nabi Azad on Wednesday. Their assertion didn’t mirror any name for a non-Gandhi on the helm, or an organisational election, which a piece within the social gathering has been rooting for.

Listed below are the Highlights

• The Gandhis supplied to step down, nevertheless it was not accepted by the CWC. So, what’s our possibility now. We have to pace up the method to elect a brand new Congress president. However the earliest that that may occur is August. However what can we do between now and August. Until then we, together with me, consider that Mrs Gandhi is main the cost.
• I do not know who within the Congress feels what. All I can say is what I really feel. The Gandhis did take accountability, as did I, for the Goa elections. Everybody on the block degree, the district degree, state degree and AICC degree are all accountable. It can’t be simply the management.
• What’s drastic? Elections for the Congress president’s submit will likely be held in August. What’s drastic about it? Are you suggesting that we must always elect and interim president to interchange an interim president until we get a president of the social gathering?
