While Rahul Gandhi has to date been averse to the idea of being the party president again, the pressure is mounting on Sonia Gandhi to find closure on this issue. The long-pending presidential election has been deferred twice because of Covid restrictions, but now the CWC may fix a timeline for it. Sources say that some leaders in the Congress Working Committee (CWC) who are considered close to Rahul Gandhi are expected to move yet another resolution urging him to take over the reins.

This has created a situation where party workers and leaders are confused as to who they should go to in case of a problem. The reference was clearly towards Rahul Gandhi, who has been meeting party leaders and taking the final call. “We know who is taking all the decisions, yet we do not,” he said. Kapil Sibal, a key leader of the G23, or group of 23 dissenters, had in a recent press conference raised this issue. The party hopes this newfound aggression would help it tide over the many crises it faces, particularly with the growing demand to sort out once and for all who is the real head of the Congress. The meeting has been scheduled against the backdrop of a fresh offensive by the party, especially Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, over the Lakhimpur violence. The meeting has been called to decide the long-pending leadership issue, though it’s being camouflaged as a session primarily to decide the political strategy for the upcoming assembly polls in 2022 and the present political situation. The Congress is set for yet another working committee meeting of its top leaders chaired by Sonia Gandhi, the interim party president.
