Amid talks of leadership change in Congress at the top and a letter that several leaders reportedly sent to interim party chief Sonia Gandhi regarding it, the Congress Working Committee (CWC) would hold its meeting on Monday. Thereafter, a bunch of leaders wrote a letter to Congress interim chief Sonia Gandhi on the issue of leadership change and elections in the CWC. Sacked Congress spokesperson Sanjay Jha said that 100 party leaders have written the letter to Sonia Gandhi for making "sweeping changes" in the party. Sonia Gandhi took over as interim party chief in August last year after Rahul Gandhi resigned following the party debacle in the 2019 general elections. The party leaders are said to be unhappy with "directionless and adrift" Congress affairs.
