A few days after he resigned from the chairmanship of the party's steering committee for poll-bound Himachal Pradesh, Congress leader Anand Sharma spoke about revival of the party and the importance of Nehru-Gandhi family.
Congress cannot revive by having A group or B group, he said, and added that the party has to collectively revive, for which some "internal changes" are required.
He said the party needs to come out of factionalism and stay united. " We are all Congressmen. What is important is that the Congress party stays strong," news agency ANI quoted him as saying.
Sharma, who had resigned from the steering committee saying he was left with no choice after the "continuing exclusion and insults" said he will campaign for the Congress wherever it is required.
“We elected Rahul Gandhi as Congress president in 2018, but it was he who resigned, we did not ask him to resign. It is important that the Nehru-Gandhi family remains integral. Congress does require inclusive and collective thinking and approach,” Sharma, a prominent G-23 leader said,
Sharma's resignation had come a few days after another leader of the G-23 grouping, Ghulam Nabi Azad, stepped down as chairman of the campaign committee in Jammu and Kashmir.
