G-23 May Prop Up 'Rebel' Pick Against Rahul Gandhi in Presidential Poll as Cong Stares at 'Inevitable' Split

News 18  

It’s not the first time that Ghulam Nabi Azad wore a saffron turban while in Jammu. Congress officially reacted to the meeting in Jammu by appealing to G-23 that they were senior members of the party and should instead campaign in poll-bound states. His immediate grudge is that while he has a year to go in Rajya Sabha, he was overlooked for the post of leader of opposition which went to Rahul Gandhi loyalist Mallikarjun Kharge. If Rahul Gandhi is a candidate, it’s clear that he will face no problem but a “rebel” standing up against him will just rake up dirt. The split in the Congress is very much on the cards and this could be timed with Rahul Gandhi taking over the reins of the party formally.
