Sonia Gandhi has started resolving the disputes between Congress-ruled Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan after the BJP-ruled states of Maharashtra and Haryana were voted out in the past. There is a ruckus in the state president for a long time and the party is refraining from making two power points there. Despite Sonia wanting to take a decision about Madhya Pradesh soon. Whereas Rajasthan wants to avoid any reshuffle till the panchayat elections to be held after about six months.
According to the media report, the Congress president called Madhya Pradesh general secretary in-charge Deepak Bavaria on Wednesday and held an opinion on the state president. In fact, the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh Kamal Nath now wants to leave the post of state president, but he does not want the president to become someone who continues to challenge the government for the day to come.
Apart from this, General Secretary Jyotiraditya Scindia has left all the responsibilities of the party and camped in Madhya Pradesh. On the other hand, Scindia is not claiming himself as a contender for the post, but he is adamant that now the president should be her choice. Second, his supporters want Scindia to be made the president. Sonia had pacified all the leaders until Jhabua's assembly by-election, but she started homework before the results came out on Thursday. If sources are to be believed, the Congress leadership no longer wants to annoy Scindia. A new president can be announced soon after talks with Kamal Nath.
On the other hand, the Congress leadership wants to give some more time to Sachin Pilot for Rajasthan. Panchayat elections are to be held in the state in April next year. Senior party leaders argue that Pilot should be given dual responsibility for some more time. The party is also ready for this, but the formula for balancing the power-equation between Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, is not going to be decided on it at the moment.
