More Heads To Roll In Congress Over Lok Sabha Rout

New Delhi: A day after the Congress dissolved its Karnataka unit, party sources said on Thursday that more heads will start rolling following its rout in the Lok Sabha elections. Senior party sources said more such action was in store in the coming days, hinting that the INC chapters in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh may be dissolved because of the dismal showing in general elections. Bihar state Congress President Madan Mohan Jha and state in-charge Shakti Sinh Gohil have already tendered their resignation to party President Rahul Gandhi. Uttar Pradesh unit chief Raj Babbar, who himself lost the Lok Sabha battle, has also sent his resignation to the party President. So have many other party leaders. The Congress won just 52 of the 542 Lok Sabha seats. It got one seat each in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh — out of the 40 and 80 members elected to the Lower House. The sources indicated that action will also be taken in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh where the party fared miserably despite being in power. (IANS)
