New Delhi:
Senior leader Digvijaya Singh, in an exclusive interview with NDTV, said party vice-president Rahul Gandhi should assume "full-time" leadership of the Congress.
Here are the highlights of his interview:- Rahul Gandhi should take the charge and Sonia Gandhi should become the mentor.
- It's time for Rahul Gandhi to take complete charge of Congress.
- AICC election should be over mid-year; that could be the time Rahul takes over.
- I have repeatedly told Rahul to participate more aggressively in Parliament.
- Sonia Gandhi should move into mentorship role of Chairperson of UPA.
- Rahul Gandhi concerned about lack of connect with aspirational middle class India.
- If PM had spoken on conversions, we would have allowed Rajya Sabha to function.
- Subramaniun Swamy is being like a loose cannon; why doesn't he talk to the police instead of the media.
- I certainly empathise with Shashi tharoor: there should be a free trial.
- Cannot say why Shashi Tharoor was removed as party spokesperson.
- Party is concerned about Sunanda Pushkar probe; he is innocent till proven guilty.
- Chief Justice has a right to personal opinion on PM, why go public with it.
