Even earlier than the outcomes of the Congress presidential polls had been out, celebration chief Rahul Gandhi inadvertently clarified that Mallikarjun Kharge is the brand new celebration chief. Throughout a press convention in Andhra Pradesh, when a reporter requested about his new position within the celebration, Gandhi replied, “I can’t touch upon Congress President’s position, that’s for Kharge ji (celebration’s Presidential candidate) to touch upon. The President will resolve what my position is…”
The outcomes of the elections, a contest between Kharge and Thiruvananthapuram MP Shashi Tharoor, for the put up of Congress president might be out by Wednesday night.
Earlier, on the eve of the outcomes, Tharoor wrote to the celebration’s chief election authority, flagging “extraordinarily severe irregularities” within the conduct of the election in Uttar Pradesh and demanded that every one votes from the state be deemed invalid.
On being requested to answer Tharoor’s allegations, Gandhi mentioned, “We’re the one political celebration within the nation that holds polls & has an election fee. I’ve labored with Mistry Ji (Cong CEC chairman), and he’s simple. Points might be addressed to EC, who’ll take a call.”
