Meanwhile, AICC treasurer Pawan Bansal received the nomination form the other day, but has now been informed that he will not contest.
–
The deadline for submitting applications is from 24 to 30 September. The latest date for the withdrawal of the appointment is 8 October. The candidate’s photo will be shown at five that evening. If necessary, the vote will take place on 17 October. The counting of votes will take place on October 19 and the announcement of the new president will be made on the same day.

It was thought that Shashi Tharoor and Ashok Gehlot would be involved, but discussions were diverted due to the dispute over the post of Prime Minister of Rajasthan.
With this, congressional workers can’t wait to see who Tharoor’s opponent will be.

It is also noteworthy that, with the exception of Tharoor, no one else has yet publicly responded, even though there are only a few hours left for the submission of the documents.

At the same time, active discussions are also underway at the Congress venue. Last night, Sonia summoned former Madhya Pradesh Prime Minister Kamal Nath. But he told the media that he is not in the race. Senior leader AK Antony was invited to come to Delhi today.
