New Delhi, 31/8: The G-23 leaders or change-seekers are opening a new battlefront with Congress leadership on the issue of electoral roll for the president’s election with senior MP Manish Tewari now finding fault for not making public the names of electors.
In what appears to be a concerted campaign on electoral rolls after senior leader Anand Sharma raised questions, Tewari chose to take on the Central Election Committee head Madhusudan Mistry who said that the list is not being made public but it would be made available at state party headquarters and supplied to candidates.
Congress General Secretary (Organisation) K C Venugopal also made it clear that the electoral roll could not be put in public domain but “whoever approaches the PCCs, they will get it”. He said, “The beauty of Congress democracy is that anybody can contest the party president poll…Rahul has already said he will not contest.”
