Veteran Congress Leader Karan Singh on Monday, 8 July, said he is “aghast” at the disorientation the party has plummeted into since Rahul Gandhi's resignation, and urged the working committee to meet without delay under the chairmanship of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to take the necessary decisions.
His strong remarks come amid the Congress plunging into a deep crisis after Gandhi took a decision to resign as the party’s president. He had initially submitted his resignation to the CWC on 25 May, which followed a spate of resignations by senior and middle-rank Congress leaders.
