Without a clear cut central authority, open warfare has broken out in some state units of Congress
There is near anarchy in Haryana with followers of former Chief Minister Bhupinder Hooda and PCC chief Ashok Tanwar practically coming to blows.
Rahul Gandhi has reportedly gone abroad and is not planning to return till June 19 when the swearing in of the new MPs is complete. While party spokesperson Randeep Surjewala states emphatically that Rahul will continue as president, the buzz in the party is that Gandhi is serious about his resignation. With Gandhi’s disappearance the Congress is shell shocked and in disarray, even if the core committee, constituted largely of old timers, is trying valiantly to hold the fort. Without a clear cut central authority, open warfare has broken out in some state units. There is near anarchy in Haryana with followers of former Chief Minister Bhupinder Hooda and PCC chief Ashok Tanwar practically coming to blows. Witnessing the street brawl, Ghulam Nabi Azad, in charge of the state, has simply backed off.
