The Congress leaders have been instructed to pass the resolution before the 20th of this month. Nomination papers should be submitted from 24th to 30th. Voting is on October 17.
With this, the organizational selection process has become a question mark again. Sonia Gandhi will not contest the elections. Rahul Gandhi is adamant that he will not contest. Priyanka Gandhi is unlikely to become president. The Gandhi family is interested in Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot. If there is a situation where Sonia Gandhi nominates the new president, there is no possibility of elections.
Sonia Gandhi has been the Interim President of the Congress for the past three years. Rahul Gandhi was elected as the President in 2017 but resigned after losing the election in 2019. Rahul Gandhi is still being highlighted as the face of the party. He is on a Bharat Jodo Yatra ahead of the 2024 elections.
