It is worth noting that in the elections of Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Uttarakhand, Goa and Manipur, Congress was expected to perform better in 4 states except UP. But this did not happen. The party could not win seats anywhere to form the government. With the results of the assembly elections, the G-23, a group of disgruntled Congress leaders, became active.

On Friday, a meeting of these leaders was held at the house of Ghulam Nabi Azad. In this, there was discussion on holding the election of the party president immediately and taking other organizational reform measures. In view of this camp, the top leadership of the Congress decided to convene a meeting of the Working Committee to review the defeat.

Another party leader and eminent lawyer Abhishek Manu Singhvi called for “restructuring” for expected results in future elections and stressed on organizational elections scheduled later this year.
