New Delhi: Congress today dismissed as "mere speculation" reports that Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi are to offer their resignation at the Congress Working Committee meeting on Monday called in the wake of the party's worst-ever electoral defeat.

"I do not want to speculate on speculative news but if something happens like your hypothetical question is concerned, in my opinion, it will be outrightly rejected by all of us", party General Secretary Shakeel Ahmed told reporters.

Ahmed, who is also the party spokesman, insisted that just like the credit for the achivements of the party is collective, so is the discredit for failures.

He was asked about reports that the Congress President and Congress Vice President could offer to quit at the CWC meeting taking moral responsibility for the poll debacle.
