With Rahul failing all the time now the leaders are looking at Priyanka.There are talks that the Congress will choose a successor for Sonia Gandhi soon.
The CWC which met to discuss the 75th anniversary of the Quit India Movement, possibly held a discussion on the change of guard .
Sonia Gandhi quietly raised the topic of a change in leadership of the party with some senior leaders, wondering aloud if Priyanka Gandhi should be made Working President .
This, however, has been dismissed by Priyanka’s PA- Sahay as “complete fabrication”. “No such discussion took place!” he added. The name of Priyanka Gandhi as Congress president has garnered strong support from the party.
While there have been demands in the past that Priyanka should be given formal role , the family has repeatedly sidestepped the issue. On her part, Priyanka has restricted herself, to the Gandhi family bastions of Amethi and Rae Barelli.
