India needs resurgent Congress, assembly polls exposed chinks in BJP's armour: Kapil Sibal

Congress leader Kapil Sibal said on Sunday that the Congress party needs to show that it is still a force to reckon with and is no longer in a state of inertia.

The Congress must bring widespread reforms across all levels of the organisation to show it is no longer in a state of inertia and to present itself as a viable political alternative to the BJP, party veteran Kapil Sibal said on Sunday. "India needs a resurgent Congress. But for that, the party needs to show that it is active, present, aware and is in the mood to engage meaningfully," the former union minister said in an exclusive interview to PTI. "For this to happen, we will need to have widespread reforms at the organisational hierarchy both at the central and state levels to show that the party is still a force to reckon with and is no longer in a state of inertia," he said.
