New Delhi, April 26: Political strategist Prashant Kishore met Congress President Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and other leaders of Congress, and made a presentation on the strategy for 2024 Lok Sabha polls. The meeting has renewed speculations of the poll strategist joining the party once again. Party General Secretary KC Venugopal, Rajya Sabha Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge, senior party leaders Ambika Soni, Digvijaya Singh and Ajay Maken.
“Prashant Kishor has given a detailed presentation on 2024 polls strategy to the Congress chief. The plan presented by him will be looked after a group set up by the Congress chief, and will submit a report to her within a week for a final decision,” Venugopal told media.
He said Congress President Sonia Gandhi will appoint a team and analyse the plan. Discussions between Congress leaders and Kishor have been on for a while, and last year after series of meetings and taking feedback over taking Kishor in the party, no conclusion was reached. It was followed by Kishor ‘s apparent attack at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in December 2021, saying the party lost more than 90 per cent of elections in the last 10 years and its leadership is “not the divine right” of an individual.
