Assam Cong MP caught on wrong foot
AICC notorious for indecisiveness’: Bordoloi to Rawat ■
In what has created a serious embarrassment for the Congress party, senior party leader and Congress MP Pradyut Bordoloi was caught on camera saying the AICC was notorious for its indecisiveness.
His statement was a part of his conversation with AICC general secretary and in-charge of Assam Congress Harish Rawat just before a press conference in Rajiv Bhawan.
During the conversation, Mr Bordoloi was caught telling Mr Rawat, “BJP has identified faces constituency-wise for the 2021 Assembly polls. If Congress is serious about polls then we will have to act. AICC is notorious for indecisiveness. They don’t decide at all. If we don’t start by December or January there will be no time.”
Warning that if the party doesn’t mobilise
things within a month or two, it would be staring at another defeat, Mr Bordoloi was also heard referring to Congress president Sonia Gandhi in the conversation wherein he claimed to have told this to Ms Gandhi that the party takes extremely late decisions.
“I have told as much to Soniaji… Madam, you take a late decision. Its like racecourse, faceless competition is no longer an option, ” said Mr Bordoloi, adding that people in Assam are thinking whether Congress will be able to form next government.
