New Delhi: Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has said a non-Gandhi should lead the party, as sought by Rahul Gandhi after he resigned from the post.
She said, “He has said that none of us should be the president of the party and I am in full agreement with him. I think that the party should find its own path also.”
On the party losing the perception battle against BJP, Priyanka said Congress was slow to understand ‘new media’ and by the time it thought of putting out its point of view, the damage had been done.
The book, “India Tomorrow: Conversations with the Next generation of Political Leaders” written by US academicians Pradeep Chibber and Harsh Shah quotes Priyanka Gandhi as having said that the Congress should have its own path.
“Perhaps not in the (resignation) letter but elsewhere he has said that none of us should be the president of the party and I am in full agreement with him,” the book quotes Priyanka Gandhi as having said in her interview to the authors.
