Bengaluru: Ahead of the Work Committee meeting, the demands seemed to grow for Rahul Gandhi to take over as the president of the Congress, because the unit of Karnataka Chief D K Shivakumar on Tuesday said it was a round voice from party workers from all countries.
“All countries, Congress workers, want Rahul Gandhi take responsibility.
We have pressed it since he resigned.
The unanimous sound of congressional workers from all over the country is Rahul Gandhi (must take party coats),” said Shivakumar.
Talking to reporters here, he said, “Rahul Gandhi is issuing 90 percent of the responsibility even now, we want him to take responsibility.” “There was a meeting of the Congress Work Committee on October 16 ….
Let’s see,” he said.
The leader of the senior party and former First Minister Siddaramaiiah also said his desire that Rahul Gandhi was responsible for party president.
In the report on party leadership offering the national role for Siddarama, Shivakumar said to leadership to decide and there was no such discussion that occurred with the state unit.
“This is for the party and leader of the Legislative Party (Siddaramaiiah), I do not want to interfere in it, this is only speculation now, has not been discussed with us,” he said.
There is speculation that President AICC Sonia Gandhi recently offers a national role in the party for Siddaramaiiah, which he said has been rejected.
Refusing the report, Siddaramaiiah, however, clarified that there was no role offered to Him.
The KPCC President also claims that some people are interested in joining Congress, and hold talks with other leaders and local leaders.
By stating that he gathered information about coal and lack of power in Karnataka, the former Minister of State, in response to a question, said “During our government (Congress), we have excess strength and we sell it to others …”
