New Delhi: Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday made a big statement while addressing a press conference in Andhra Pradesh amid the election for the post of Congress national president. During this time, when a reporter questioned Rahul Gandhi about his new role in the party, Gandhi replied that he can neither say anything about his role nor the congress president's role.
Rahul Gandhi further said that that work belongs to Mallikarjun Kharge Saheb. What will be my role will be decided by the president. Rahul Gandhi said in the press conference that everyone is questioning about the election in Congress. I am proud that Congress has conducted open and transparent elections. At the same time, Rahul Gandhi questioned the press and asked why no one is interested in the elections of other parties including BJP and other regional parties.
Let me tell you that, today i.e. on Wednesday, the results of the Congress presidential election have come and which the political pundits were speculating from the beginning, it has proved to be true. Mallikarjun Kharge has won a one-sided victory in the Congress presidential election held after 22 years. Out of 9,385 votes, Kharge got 7,897 votes, while Shashi Tharoor, who was contesting against him, had to be happy with just 1,072 votes. At the same time, 416 votes were declared invalid.
