It should be noted that after Lok Sabha poll drubbing, several party leaders and workers had demanded the Priyanka be brought to the mainstream to rejuvenate India's grand-old political party.
Today's development came amid reports suggesting that Rahul has not gone abroad and he is somewhere in Uttarakhand. It is also believed that Rahul is upset with some ‘old guards' within the party who are resisting his ideas of democratisation.
