New Delhi: Veteran Congress leader Anand Sharma on Wednesday once again talked about organisational changes in the Congress. He said that only if some internal changes are brought in the party, Congress will be revived. Anand Sharma had on Sunday resigned as chairman of the steering committee of the party's state unit ahead of the Assembly elections in Himachal Pradesh. His move is being seen as a major setback for Congress. However, he has said that he is ready to campaign wherever the party asks him to.
Speaking to the media on Wednesday, he said, "Wherever required, I will campaign for the Congress. Congress needs to come out of factionalism and stay united. We are all Congressmen. What is important is that the Congress party remains strong. At present, there is a discussion about the election of a new president in the Congress party. There is speculation that again a member of the Gandhi family can take over the reins of the Congress.
Reacting to this, Anand Sharma said, "We elected Rahul Gandhi as Congress president in 2018, but he resigned. We did not ask him to resign.'' It is essential that the Nehru-Gandhi family remains integral (to the Congress party). Congress needs an inclusive and collective thinking and approach. Before Sharma, another G23 group leader Ghulam Nabi Azad had resigned as chairman of the Congress' election campaign committee in Jammu and Kashmir.
