Taking a jibe at the BJP's slogan of Congress Mukt Bharat, Kharge said- According to, in the name of making a new India, they give the slogan of making a Congress-mukt Bharat, because they know that as long as the Congress is present, they will not do so. Can. We will not allow this to happen and will continue to fight for it.

Kharge said- Today is a very emotional moment for me. Today, I thank all of you heartily for giving this honor to a common worker by electing him as the President of the Indian National Congress. Congress will break the circle of lies and hatred. There is an appeal to the people to come together not for the party but to save democracy.
Kharge said I know this is a difficult time, efforts are being made to change the democracy which Congress established. Thanks to Rahul Gandhi for Bharat Jodo Yatra, new energy is being infused into the whole country.
Sonia said - relieved by leaving the post
On this occasion, Sonia Gandhi, who was the interim president of Congress, said that she is relieved by handing over the charge of the post of President to Kharge. A great burden has been lifted from his head. He said- I congratulate the new party president Kharge Ji. What is most satisfying is that those who have been elected as the President are experienced and down-to-earth leaders. Working as a simple worker, he has reached this height with his hard work and dedication. Sonia also thanked Congress leaders and workers for her tenure.
Tributes to three generations of the Gandhi family
Kharge paid tribute to Gandhiji at Rajghat before reaching the AICC headquarters to assume the post of Congress President. After this, he went to the tombs of Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi, and Rajiv Gandhi. Thus Kharge bowed to three generations of Congress along with Gandhiji before assuming office. On reaching AICC, Sonia and Rahul welcomed Kharge on stage by handing over a bouquet.
Kharge also offered flowers at the samadhi of former Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri and Dalit leader Babu Jagjivan Ram. Kharge also met former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Tuesday evening. The time for the oath was fixed at 10 am at the AICC headquarters. It's been a while.
Kharge won by the biggest margin after Sonia
Mallikarjun Kharge defeated Shashi Tharoor by a margin of 6825 votes in the Congress Presidential election results. Kharge got 7897 votes, while Tharoor could get only 1072 votes. With the victory in this election, Kharge has become the 65th leader to become the Congress President. He is the second Dalit leader after Babu Jagjivan Ram to become the Congress President. Apart from this, he is also the second leader from Karnataka to hold this post.
The challenge of handling the party and winning the election
The bigger their victory over Kharge, the bigger the challenges are in front of him. At the time when he has come forward to take the responsibility of the party's high command, then only two states Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh are left with a Congress government. At the same time, in Jharkhand and Tamil Nadu, the party is involved in the coalition government, but the Chief Minister belongs to other parties.
When Kharge became the president, there are assembly elections in Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat this year. At the same time, in the next year i.e. 2023, elections are to be held in 10 states including Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, and Maharashtra. In such a situation, the challenge before Kharge will be to unite the party and perform better in the election field.
