New Delhi: Top Congress leaders from across the country on Saturday got together to review the party's drubbing in the Lok Sabha 2019 polls, as the Congress Working Committee meeting got underway in New Delhi. The CWC meeting was chaired by Congress president Rahul Gandhi and is being attended by UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi, former prime minister Manmohan Singh, Uttar Pradesh (East) in-charge Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and chief ministers of three party-ruled states -- Punjab, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh -- and of the Union Territory Puducherry.

The meeting of the party's highest decision-making body will go into the reasons behind the party's debacle and discus as to why its poll narrative failed to convince the people. There were speculations that the Congress president might offer his resignation taking moral responsibility for the party's poor performance in the polls. However, a party source said that reports about Gandhi offering to resign 'is wrong'.
