After the setbacks in the assembly elections, the Congress Working Committee convened brainstormed on the organization, and also raised questions on the role of the Election Commission. The party announced to start of a nationwide movement on the questions being raised about the entire election process including EVMs.
Apart from this, it was said that strict steps should be taken to improve the organization. According to sources, Rahul Gandhi even asked party president Mallikarjun Kharge to use the whip given accountability.
'Appealed not to lose courage'
According to sources, in the meeting, Rahul Gandhi appealed to the leaders not to lose courage. During this, Rahul Gandhi said that not only EVMs are under question, but the entire election system is under suspicion and the Election Commission is not playing an impartial role.
'Advice given on factionalism and discipline'
In the CWC meeting, party president Mallikarjun Kharge advised on factionalism and discipline. Mallikarjun Kharge talked about taking tough decisions and changes in the organization. An interesting incident happened in the meeting when Mallikarjun Kharge while referring to the delay in electoral accountability and organizational decisions, said that I would have to use the whip to set the system right. Rahul Gandhi immediately said in support, Kharge ji, use the whip!
'Election Commission also cornered'
At the same time, in the CWC proposal, Congress cornered the Election Commission but did not express a clear opinion on EVM vs ballot. While just a few days ago, Congress President Kharge had said that we want elections through ballot. In the meeting, Priyanka Gandhi also said that the party's stand should be clear on EVM or ballot. It is worth noting that the performance of Congress in Maharashtra has been disappointing. The party had to face defeat in the elections.
