Cong Working Committee meets to review Lok Sabha poll debacle

Press Trust of India  |  New Delhi 

Top leaders from across the country Saturday got together to review the poll drubbing, as the party's highest decision-making body met here.

The Working Committee(CWC) meeting, chaired by Rahul Gandhi, is being attended by Sonia Gandhi, former Manmohan Singh, chief ministers of party-ruled states and other top leaders from across the country.

The meeting will go into the reasons behind the party's defeat and discus why as to its poll narrative failed to convince the people to vote in its favour.

The Congress is expected to offer resignation taking moral responsibility for the party's poor performance in the polls.

Though the party improved on its 2014 tally of 44, it could win just 52 seats this year. The party could not open its account in 18 states and Union Territories.
