TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Saturday insisted that the Congress will continue to fight the Bharatiya Janata Party every day despite the defeat in the Lok Sabha elections. “Last time we were 44 in the Lok Sabha and we took on the BJP and now we have 52 and we will fight the BJP every day,” Gandhi said at the meeting of the Congress parliamentary party.
“We need to introspect in the party. We will try and rejuvenate ourselves and we can do it,” he told Congress MPs at the meeting. “Every Congress member must remember that each one of you is fighting for the Constitution, for every person in India irrespective of the color of his skin or belief,” Gandhi added.
He also congratulated his mother Sonia Gandhi who was elected the Congress parliamentary party leader. Rahul had offered to resign as Congress chief on May 25 taking responsibility for the partys drubbing in the Lok Sabha elections, but the Congress Working Committee rejected the offer although he has insisted that he is firm on quitting.
