In the wake of a string of poll debacles in several states, the Congress Working Committee (CWC) will be holding a crucial meet here on Tuesday.
The meet will be chaired by party president Sonia Gandhi at the All India Congress Committee (AICC) headquarters 24, Akbar Road and is scheduled to start at 10:30 am.
While the CWC is expected to discuss the national roadmap for the party, as well as the upcoming elections in Delhi, it is believed that a crucial decision as regards party vice-president Rahul Gandhi may also be taken.
Reports suggest that Rahul could be elevated to the post of Congress president at today’s meet, as has been the demand of several party leaders wanting to see him lead the party. However, party sources denied that any such news was in the offing.
The meeting is being held not long after Sonia Gandhi wrote to state party leaders seeking their inputs on reorganising the party in the wake of poll routs at the Centre as well as in states like Maharashtra, Haryana, Jharkhand and Jammu and Kashmir.
