The party has decided to reach out to other opposition parties on key issues. Sources have told India TV that concerns were raised in today's meeting by some leaders whether the Congress should reach TMC, to which Sonia Gandhi said that they should, and leave it up to the Trinamool Congress to decide. 

Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha, Mallikarjun Kharge said, "In Congress Parliament Strategy Group meeting today, we have decided that we will raise a range of issues in the Parliament, including inflation, prices of petrol and diesel, Chinese aggression and issues of Jammu and Kashmir."
