We are 52 MPs, We are enough to make BJP jump everyday: Rahul Gandhi

The Congress has elected Sonia Gandhi as the chairperson of Congress Parliamentary Party (CPP) and in the meeting, Rahul Gandhi finally opened up on their defeat and tried to motivate Congress MPs.

Rahul Gandhi on Saturday, speaking at the Congress Parliamentary Party meeting said, "We are 52 MPs. I guarantee you that these 52 MPs will fight against BJP every single inch. We are enough to make BJP jump everyday."

The meeting of Congress was attended by 52 winning MPs who were elected for next Lok Sabha between 2019-24. The Congress leaders met to elect the chairperson for the parliament and earlier the post was held by Sonia Gandhi. However, in the 16th Lok Sabha, the post was head by senior Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge.

 

Meanwhile, this time in Lok Sabha elections, Kharge failed to retain his seat and lost his constituency Gulbarga, Karnataka. After his absence, Congress has only a few options for this post. Congress spokesperson Randeep Surjewala tweeted, "Smt. Sonia Gandhi elected as the leader of Congress Parliamentary Party!12.13 crore voters for reposing faith in the Congress party".

Rahul Gandhi speaking at the Congress Parliamentary Party meeting said, "Every Congress member must remember that each one of you is fighting for the Constitution, for every person in India irrespective of the color of his skin or belief."
