A group of Congress leaders came to Delhi to meet Sonia Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi to discuss state party affairs. By chance, Sonia Gandhi could not meet the delegation, and Priyanka Gandhi had to take charge, the source says. During discussions, Priyanka asked the leaders, Where are the main opposition party leaders during the agitation? Why are the public sentiments not reflected in the moves and behaviour of the party? " a source says. In this crucial time, the opposition must be viewed with the public, not in meetings, but on the road with agitators, a source says. Leaders assured to do as advised and left the source says. One of the leaders requested an audience with Priyanka Gandhi separately, a source says.
During discussions, he said that all these front-line leaders present here will not do anything because they are with the BJP internally, and most likely will contest the next election on the BJP symbol, the source says. Priyanka was stunned by this disclosure and said he must try to bring new voters into the party, but those joining would also see the party's winability, and to ensure this, everyone will have to work hard, the source says. She added that the disclosure will be in her mind for any future decisions source says.
