LS Polls 2024: Delhi Congress chief Arvinder Lovely resigns, cites interference by leader | Oneindia

Arvinder Singh Lovely, the Delhi Congress chief, tendered his resignation on Sunday, citing significant interference by the party's general secretary in-charge and the contentious alliance with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Delhi. In his resignation letter addressed to Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge, Lovely expressed feeling "handicapped" and unable to effectively lead the Delhi Congress unit. Highlighting numerous instances of discord, Lovely outlined objections raised by several party leaders regarding the conduct of Deepak Babaria, the Congress's general secretary in-charge for Delhi. Despite these objections, Lovely faced immense pressure to dismiss the dissenting leaders who opposed Babaria's approach. #ArvinderLovely #DelhiCongress #Resignation #LeaderInterference #Elections2024 #LokSabhaPolls #CongressAAPAlliance #PoliticalResignation #PartyInterference #DelhiPolitics #LeadershipFriction #PoliticalAlliance #PartyConflict #PoliticalTensions #CongressLeaders ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.101~

Rahul Gandhi's 'Shakti' Slip: BJP latches on, Rocky Political Journey Amid Elections for Cong?

Rahul Gandhi's recent statement at the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra's finale in Mumbai sparked controversy. While attempting to criticise BJP's tactics, his mention of "Shakti" in Hindu dharma was perceived differently, leading to BJP using it against Congress and Rahul. Congress defended Gandhi, attributing his words to BJP's power through RSS and 'Manuvaad.' However, the incident highlights the importance of careful language in political discourse, especially during elections, to avoid unintended consequences and misinterpretations. #RahulGandhi #BJPvsCongress #LanguageMatters #HinduDharma #ShaktiRow ~HT.97~PR.282~
