The Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections are scheduled to take place early next year. In 2017, Congress had only managed to win seven seats.
Prayagraj: Ahead of the Assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh, former Union Minister and Congress leader Salman Khurshid on Saturday (September 18, 2021) said that party General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra will decide whether she wants to be the chief ministerial candidate or not.
"Congress would contest the UP assembly polls under party General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra`s leadership and she herself would decide on the issue of whether she would be party`s chief ministerial candidate or not," Khurshid said while speaking to reporters in Prayagraj.
Speaking about the party`s president, he said, "We already have a party president so we do not need another party president and we are satisfied. It seems people from outside (Congress) are not satisfied."
