India / Sonia Gandhi at CWC meeting: Poll results tell us we need to put our house in order

New Delhi: After the Congress's poor performance in the recently concluded assembly elections of five states, the party's interim president Sonia Gandhi has called for "things to go" in the party. In an address to the Congress Working Committee (CWC) meeting, Sonia Gandhi said, "We need to take cognizance of these serious tremors. It would be less to say that we are very disappointed. I intend that every aspect of these tremors has been looked into. Set up a small group to do that and get a report from that very soon. "

Congress President Sonia Gandhi spoke of forming a committee to review the Congress' failure in the recent elections. He called the defeat of Assam and Kerala and the Zero seat in West Bengal extremely disappointing.

He said that the Modi government has been failing to control the corona. He has reiterated the demand to call an all-party meeting. Describing Corona as an unforeseen health crisis, Sonia Gandhi appealed to the party workers for all possible cooperation in dealing with it.

According to the news agency Bhasha, the Congress supremo said, "We have to understand why we failed to remove the current governments in Kerala and Assam and why we did not even open our account in Bengal?" There will be some uncomfortable lessons of these questions, but if we do not face the reality, if we do not see the facts correctly, we will not take the right lesson. ''

He insisted, "These election results clearly show that we have to fix our things."

Sonia said, "When we met on January 22 last, we had decided that the election of the President of Congress would be completed by the middle of June. Election Authority chief Madhusudan Mistry has set the election schedule. Venugopal Kovid will read it after discussing 19 more election results.

Significantly, the Congress, which was trying to return to power in Assam and Kerala, had to face defeat. At the same time, his account could not even be opened in West Bengal. She suffered a crushing defeat in Puducherry, where she was in power until a few months ago. It was a relief for him in Tamil Nadu that his DMK-led coalition won.
