Sonia Gandhi To Be Interim Congress President, BJPs Sambit Patra Says Party Playing Musical Chair

While addressing the press conference on Saturday, Congress leader K C Venugopal said, “Congress Working Committee (CWC) unanimously resolved to request Sonia Gandhi to take over as the Interim President, pending the election of a regular president by the AICC.” Mocking the appointment of Sonia Gandhi as interim president of Congress, BJP’s national spokesperson Sambit Patra on Sunday said Gandhi's are playing "musical chair" amongst themselves. Speaking to ANI, Patra said, "They had to zero down to someone who belongs to the Gandhi family at the end. We can also say that Congress has travelled a full circle, it is back to square one from Sonia Gandhi to Rahul Gandhi to Sonia Gandhi; it is a musical chair which is only playing music to one particular family. I would also like to suggest that it also shows one thing that Rahul Gandhi was a blunder as far as Congress is concerned."
