Congress Took Almost A Year To Form Congress Working Commitee?

Congress Took Almost A Year To Form Congress Working Commitee?

After almost ten months the Congress president could finalise the list of CWC members source says. The last CWC was working with 23 members but now increased to 39 members but still some important members could not find a place in the new committee source says. Despite accommodating only two members of his own, Kharge seems failed to satisfy all groups sources say. Out of 39 members 11 are not active in politics and for the last 10 years have not contested any elections but surviving in politics through Rajya Sabha only source says. Good numbers are of defeated leaders such as Deepa Das Munshi, Ajay Maken, Jagdish Thakore, Gulam Ahmad Pir, Salman Khursheed, Digvijay Singh, Tarique Anwar, Mukul Wasnik and Meera Kumar are in the new team source says. The leaders from G 23 also got sufficient representation, Sashi Tharoor and Anand Sharma are in CWC source says. Gurdeep Sappal from Delhi and Rajya Sabha member Naseer Hussain are considered to be from the Kharge group source says. To include Sappal in the team, Kharge has ignored senior leader J P Aggarwal of Delhi source says. Aggarwal has also been changed as MP in charge and Surjewala has been given the charge source says. Pawan Bansal, Treasure has also not been included source says. This is going away from set practice and could get the position of permanent invitee. Seems Kharge has taken revenge from on Bansal for his purchase of forms for the president's post in the past source says. The most liked leader of Rahul Gandhi, Imran Pratapgarhi has also been ignored probably due to his name figuring in Atique case and Naseer Hussain has been selected source says. A K Antony, close to Sonia Gandhi also included despite his son Anil Antony joining BJP source says. By going through all the names it is clear that Sonia Gandhi, G 23 leaders and old guards of the party influenced the selection source says.
