Chennai sources stated that led by AICC Secretaries sanjay dutt and Sirivella Prasad, who flew into Chennai for the purpose, Congressmen of Tamilnadu on Wednesday took out a short rally here urging Rahul Gandhi to continue as party president, asserting he was in no way responsible for the party's poor show in the Lok Sabha election. A Tamilnadu Congress Committee resolution passed at the rally said “rahul Gandhi has the enthusiasm, mental strength and energy to pull the Congress out of the present situation”.
Meanwhile it said on the other hand, each Congress worker should introspect if he (she) worked best and matched the energy and hard work demonstrated by rahul in the poll campaign. Furthermore he infused a new energy in the party when he took over as party chief in 2017, and if every Congress worker had matched his enthusiasm and dedication, such a poll drubbing would not have happened.
Moreover chanting slogans like “Vendum vendum Rahulin thalamai vendum,” (We need the leadership of Rahul) and waving party flags, Congress workers commenced their rally from the DMS Metro station and ended it at nearby Kamarajar Arangam.
