I was wrong in using the word 'nonsense', says Rahul Gandhi
Ahmedabad: Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi on Thursday conceded the words he had chosen to trash the ordinance on convicted lawmakers might have been wrong but not his sentiment. Rahul had used the word 'nonsense'
"What we are doing in the party is decentralisation of power. Every bill that we have brought is about decentralisation of power from Panchayati Raj to MNREGA," he said.
"When I was the general secretary of youth Congress, we brought reforms. No post of YC or NSUI comes from top to bottom now. But you cannot apply what we did in YC and NSUI to the main Congress party. It is more complex here. But our direction is right. Our direction is of empowering more people," he said.
During the day, he interacted with office-bearers of the state Congress, Youth Congress and NSUI, the party's students wing. He is scheduled to meet party leaders and office-bearers at Rajkot tomorrow.
