Parivaar ke moh se upar uthe: Another letter 'bomb' in Congress, this time from UP
India TV NewsThe Congress is all set to be bombarded with another 'letter bomb', this time it comes from Uttar Pradesh. Nine senior Congress leaders, expelled from the party last year, have sent a letter to Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi asking her to save the party before its slips into "history". In a veiled attack on Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who is the party general secretary in charge of UP, the four-page letter urges Sonia Gandhi to rise above family -"parivaar ke moh se upar uthe"- and restore the democratic traditions of the party. The letter, signed by former MP Santosh Singh, former minister Satyadev Tripathi, former MLAs Vinod Chaudhary, Bhoodar Narain Mishra, Nekchand Pandey, Swayam Prakash Goswami and Sanjeev Singh, says that the Congress is passing through its 'worst ever' phase in Uttar Pradesh. The senior Congress leaders further claim that the party posts are being occupied by those who are working on a salary basis and are not even primary members of the party.
