CWC Meet highlights: India no longer a democracy, it has earned label of electoral autocracy, says Congress
In an apparent message to the G23, Congress chief Sonia Gandhi said she is a full-time, hands-on party president and there is no need for leaders to speak to her through the media. In her opening remarks at the CWC meeting, Gandhi asserted that every member of the party wants a revival of the Congress, but that requires unity and keeping the party's interests paramount. However, the biggest development was Rahul Gandhi saying that he would consider to become the party chief once again.
BJP mocks CWC as 'parivar bachao working committee', slams it for not reacting to Singhu killing
The BJP on Saturday mocked the Congress Working Committee meeting as "parivar bachao working committee" and alleged that it offered no answers to the issues of the party's internal rift and its leadership's failures, and instead indulged in spreading lies.
BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia also criticised the CWC for not reacting to the ghastly murder of a Dalit man at the Singhu border, one of the sites for the farmers' protests, and questioned if the opposition party stood with the "Talibani mindset" behind the killing. Anarchic elements are using farmers for their politics, he said.
