New Delhi, 4/12: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Sunday read the riot act to party leaders, saying they will have to make way for new leaders if they ignore organisational work or are incapable of successfully undertaking the work assigned to them.
Kharge’s warning came at the meeting of the party’s Steering Committee, which decided to hold its Plenary Session in Chhattisgarh capital Raipur in the second half of February and launch a two-month ‘Haath se Haath Jodo Abhiyan’ starting from January 26 as a follow up to the ongoing Bharat Jodo Yatra.
At the meeting attended by former president Sonia Gandhi and other senior leaders, Kharge stressed on “organisational accountability from top to bottom” and said Congress could win elections and serve the country only if its organisation is “strong, accountable, and lives up to the expectations of the people”.
