‘Leader after leader leaving; serious concern’: Congress G-23 leaders call for introspection

Senior leader Ashwani Kumar’s withdrawal from Congress once again underscored simmering tensions within the party. While the party remained silent, the leader of the party’s “G-23” bloc said his exit showed that nothing was going well in the party.

Senior party leader Ghulam Nabi Azad said the withdrawal of “leader by leader” from the party was “a matter of serious concern”.

Deputy Upper House leader Azad and Lok Sabha MP Manish Tewari said it was time for the party to conduct serious and sincere introspection. All three signed an August 2020 letter from 23 senior leaders, or G23, to Congress President Sonia Gandhi calling for sweeping changes to the party.

Several leaders, speaking on condition of anonymity, said they would not be surprised if the party faced an implosion after March 10 if the parliamentary election turned out to be against the party.

“One leader after another is leaving the party and it’s a very worrying issue. (Ashwani) Kumar, I think he’s the fourth or fifth in addition to the large number of leaders and workers across the country The ex-union minister who left,” Azad told The Indian Express.

Azad, a member of the Parliamentary Works Committee and a former opposition leader in the upper house of Lords, said it showed that it would take a lot of introspection in Congress to find the reasons for these withdrawals. It would be incorrect to say that these leaders are acting at the behest of any individual or (any) party. There must be some unease in the party that makes even the hard-core congressional leaders uncomfortable. “

Bhupinder Singh Hooda, a former Haryana chief minister and another G23 leader, tweeted: “Sad and unfortunate news that Sh Ashwani Kumar is leaving Congress. He is an old friend and belongs to a free Fighter’s family.”

Twari told The Indian Express: “Mr Ashwani Kumar and I worked together in the government of Dr Manmohan Singh. He and I had civilizational differences on some issues. But even a Small workers who leave the party also need to introspect.”

“Sad to see a valued colleague Ashwani Kumar resign from Congress. Sadly a man who served the party for four years has left. A matter of collective concern,” Sharma tweeted. road.
