Talks for rejig in Congress begins

Written by news2in

Thiruvananthapuram: The discussion to revamp the KPCC has begun with the party high command inviting the leaders to New Delhi.
Opposition leader V D Satheesan met Rahul Gandhi in New Delhi on Tuesday and had discussions in this regard.
Gandhi invited KPCC president K Sudhkaran, former chief minister Oommen Chandy and former KPCC president Mullappally Ramachandran to New Delhi for talks.
In the coming days Ramesh Chennithala and other senior leaders will also be called to the national capital for discussions.
After the discussion with Gandhi, Satheesan said he has urged the party leadership not to delay the revamping of the organization.
He said he was not there to end the groups in the party but has the opinion that the groups should not swallow the party as a whole.
He said he was of the opinion that deserving leaders should not be sidelined while deciding party positions.
Meanwhile, Sudhakaran has convened the first political affairs committee meeting of the KPCC on Wednesday since he took over the president post.
Even though the meeting is convened to discuss the present political situation, it is learnt that the preliminary discussion on revamping the party will also be held here.
Sudhakaran has already come out against the jumbo committees at the KPCC and also in the district Congress committees.
He has made it clear that all such committees will be revamped and a small committee will be constituted to replace the existing ones.
Sudhakaran will be seeking the support of leaders for this at the meeting.
All leaders are likely to extend support to him as the party high command has already given enough hints that it will not entertain the demands of group managers anymore.
After the political affairs committee meeting, in the coming days, the leaders will be leaving for New Delhi to give final shape to the new committees.
The AICC has decided to talk to both senior leaders, Chandy and Chennithala, before giving Sudhakaran a free hand to reorganize the party.
