Sonia Gandhi hints at her retirement
Recently on February 25 during her address to Congress plenary session in Raipur, Gandhi hinted at her retirement saying that with the conclusion of Bharat Jodo Yatra, which was a turning point for Congress, she may be ready to hang up her boots.
"Our victories in 2004 and 2009 along with the able leadership of Dr Manmohan Singh gave me personal satisfaction but what gratifies me most is that my innings could conclude with the Bharat Jodo Yatra, a turning point for Congress," Congress MP and UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi said in Raipur while addressing party's plenary session.
Sonia Gandhi launched an all-out attack on the BJP government. She urged the Congress workers to tackle the current regime with vigour and reach out to people to convey the party's message. Gandhi accused the government of causing economic ruin by favouring a particular businessman, making a veiled attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi over a controversy involving the business empire of industrialist Gautam Adani.
