New Delhi: United Progressive Alliance (UPA) chairperson Sonia Gandhi on June 1 was elected as the leader of the Congress Parliamentary Party at a meeting in New Delhi. She praised Congress President Rahul Gandhi for his "valiant and relentless" campaign in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, saying he toiled night and day for the party, demonstrated his "fearless leadership" and took on the Narendra Modi government head on.
Sonia Gandhi's lavish praise for his son came as he has been insisting on quitting the post owning moral responsibility for the party's debacle in the general elections. Addressing the first Congress Parliamentary Party (CPP) meeting after her re-election as its Chairperson, she indicated that party workers wanted Rahul to continue as the party chief. She said emotional messages were coming from all corners vindicating his leadership.
