CONGRESS LEADER REJECTS OFFER AS ADVISORY ROLE FOR PRIYANKA GANDHI

The Congress party on Thursday were surprised to know that their party leader Rajesh Mishra rejected to take up his appointment as a member of an advisory council to Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. He is a former Member of Parliament from Varanasi.

When asked as to why did he decline the offer Rajesh Mishra said that he is not in a position to advise her; also the party needs to "introspect" in the current political situation he stressed on. 

While speaking to reporters, Mishra said that "I am not in a position to advise her. It is the internal matter of the party. If Priyanka ji or Rahul Gandhi ask me, I will tell them about my views."

"In the present political scenario, the Congress should introspect. The party should promote ground-level workers and laborious and devoted Congressmen," he added.

According to News18 report, the Congress earlier in the week appointed Ajay Kumar Lallu as its Uttar Pradesh president and replaced Raj Babbar. 

The party also revamped the state unit by bringing in four vice presidents, 12 general secretaries, and 24 secretaries.
