Rahul should take 'full time' charge of Congress

December 27, 2014 20:46

With the Congress reeling under a string of poll defeats, senior leader Digvijaya Singh today said party vice president Rahul Gandhi should assume "full-time" leadership of the Congress.

"All Congressmen today want Rahul Gandhi to take over full-time leadership of All India Congress Committee," the party general secretary said in Bhopal, unfazed by the Congress having distanced itself from a similar suggestion made by him last month in which the party described it as his "personal view".

Singh, however, said Congress president Sonia Gandhi will continue to remain "our leader".
