I had never retired and will not retire says Sonia Gandhi in a session in Raipur.
I had never retired and will not retire: Sonia Gandhi in Raipur and this was said after not even 24 hours passed after news circulated around that Sonia Gandhi had retired from politics.
The former Congress President Sonia Gandhi said at the Raipur session of the Congress that her political journey ended with the Bharat Jodo Yatra. After this, the discussion started that Sonia Gandhi is now going to retire from politics.
But on Sunday a statement has been issued by the party rejecting the news of Sonia Gandhi’s retirement outright. Party leader Alka Lamba quoted Sonia Gandhi as saying that neither she had ever retired nor will she ever.
Congress leader Alka Lamba has said that she had a talk with Sonia Gandhi on this issue. Alka said, ‘I told her about the news related to Madam’s retirement coming in the media, and she laughed and said that I had never retired and would never retire in the future.
This statement by Sonia Gandhi came after her emotional speech in Raipur where it was speculated that Sonia might now retire from politics. Her statement has come only to put an end to these speculations.
In fact, the 85th Congress session is going on in Raipur, the capital of Chhattisgarh. The former Congress President had said that it gives her personal satisfaction, but what is most satisfying for her is that her innings can end with the Bharat Jodo Yatra, which has come to an important stage.
Sonia Gandhi also praised Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra and congratulated him for its great success.
After this, rumors quickly circulated that Sonia might now retire from politics. She put a rest to these rumors by saying that the 85th Congress session is going on in Raipur, the capital of Chhattisgarh.
“Sonia Gandhi will continue to ‘bless and guide’ Congress said Alka Lamba
