Live! Cong to boycott all-party meet in Chhattisgarh tomorrow

May 29, 2013 20:59

Congress will boycott tomorrow's all-party meeting convened by the Raman Singh government in Chhattisgarh in the wake of Maoist attack in which 27 people, including senior Congress leaders were killed on May 25.

Party spokesperson Bhakta Charan Das said the state CLP as also the party have decided to boycott the meeting. At the AICC briefing earlier, Das had, however, said that the party would be attending the meeting apparently unaware of the decision taken by the state unit. Das had also attacked the state government for not calling such a meeting before the Congress Parivartan Yatra started.

The state unit has maintained that such meetings have no meaning as the state government did nothing to provide security to the Congress leaders.
