'Not part of it': Veerappa Moily distances himself from 'G-23' Congress meet in Jammu
FirstpostBengaluru: Distancing himself from the Jammu meet of G-23 leaders, senior Congress leader M Veerappa Moily on Monday virtually expressed concern over internal differences in the party spilling out into the open, and backed Rahul Gandhi’s return as President of the outfit. The former union minister was one of the groups of 23 leaders who wrote to the interim President Sonia Gandhi in August last year urging her to ensure “full-time” and “visible” leadership. On the growing clamour in the party for the return of Rahul Gandhi as President, Moily said: “We also want him to come back as Soniaji is not well”. On some Congress leaders stating that the party is weakening, Moily said when the Congress starts winning, the BJP would look weak; it’s always so. "
