NEW DELHI: The new Congress president should be appointed through consensus and not election as it helps to bind the party and Rahul Gandhi is certainly up to it, Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh said today.
He also said that it was up to Sonia Gandhi whether she will continue as party chief for another term and the party will be happy if she decides so.
Amarinder, however, favoured projection of regional leaders in Congress and making them the party’s face in each state ahead of assembly elections.
“Elections are always bitter and consensus keeps the party together. There should be a consensus on the party president.
“You don’t have any bad blood. It is all happening in a happy way,” he told in an interview. (AGENCIES)
