The meeting was also attended by AICC general secretary and in-charge of Delhi, Shaktisinh Gohil. “The party passed three resolutions unanimously, requesting Rahul Gandhi to take over as the president of the Indian National Congress, and demanding the resignation of Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal for their failures’," the statement said.
Delhi Congress president Anil Kumar moved the resolutions. “Considering the disturbed and dangerous political situation in the country, Congress needs a dynamic and powerful leader like Rahul Gandhi at the helm, he said.
