Rahul Gandhi offers to resign at CWC, but not accepted

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ According to reports, Congress president Rahul Gandhi has offered his resignation, but it has not been accepted.

After the election results, in which the Congress performed dismally — it increased its 2014 tally by just 8 to a measly 52 seats — Rahul, addressing a press conference, accepted responsibility, saying, “I accept 100 per cent responsibility.”

Congress’s which hoped for a revival in these Lok Sabha elections and pegged its campaign on Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Chowkidar chor hai’ jibe against the Prime Minister in the Rafale deal failed to resonate with the people and couldn’t even gain in the Hindi heartland states of Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan where it came to power recently in the state elections.
