January 19, 2013 20:58

Terming the 'Chintan Shivir' of Congress party as a mere event to launch Rahul Gandhi as the leader in the 2014 polls, former chief minister and Leader of Opposition in Rajasthan Assembly Vasundhara Raje today claimed that no serious issues were discussed during the conclave.

"This is a formal platform to launch or rather impose Rahul Gandhi on the country," Raje, who was in the city to address a party meeting, told reporters here. "There are various issues of people's concern but none of them are being discussed in this camp and instead they are introspecting on their position," she said.
