Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on Saturday, 6 July, said only a young leader should replace Rahul Gandhi as the Congress president, asserting that it would help the grand old party bounce back.
He said the young leader with a forward-looking approach would "galvanise" the rank and file of the party after the "unfortunate" resignation of Gandhi.
Singh urged the Congress Working Committee (CWC) to look for Rahul's replacement in a charismatic "Gen Next" leader, who can "enthuse" people with his "pan-India appeal and grassroots presence".
