We are co-owners of the Congress party and not tenants, says Anand Sharma
The HinduCongress’ Deputy Leader in the Rajya Sabha Anand Sharma, who was among 23 leaders who had expressed concern over the state of the Congress in a letter to party chief Sonia Gandhi, in an exclusive interview told The Hindu that the party needs a new narrative and cannot be in denial. But the timing of the letter was questioned by the Congress Working Committee members including Rahul Gandhi. What saddened me is that we were given sermons by people who had betrayed Indira Gandhi when the Shah Commission was set up, abused Sanjay Gandhi and left the Congress while many of us faced police lathis, went from jail to jail and still carry injury marks. But the letter does say that the CWC failed to give direction to the party and mentions the need for a “full time and visible leadership” No, we have talked visible leadership at every level.
