Congress Presidential Election: After a long time, once again the preparations for the election for the post of Congress President have started. Elections will be held for this on October 17 and the Congress is expected to get a new president two days later. But now Congress MP and party's rebel leader Manish Tewari has raised questions on the process of Congress President election. He has demanded to make the list of the voting representatives public. Earlier, Anand Sharma has also raised questions on the voter list in the CWC meeting.

Manish Tewari, a member of "G-23" in Congress, has asked the organization election in-charge Madhusudan Mistry that how will there be a fair election without making the voter list public? Tiwari said that this does not happen even in club elections! After this, just before the election of the President's post, the troubles of the Congress seem to be increasing.

Tiwari raised these questions

There are about 9 thousand voters for the election of Congress President. Madhusudan Mistry said that the list of voters is in the state Congress offices and the list will be handed over to the contesting candidates. Tiwari has asked that will he have to wander in the states to contest the election of the party president? Tiwari has also expressed the apprehension that in the election of the President, the nomination of a candidate can be canceled on the pretext that the proposer is not a voter. Ten proposers are needed to contest the election of the President.

It is clear from Tiwari's tweet that the rebel group president of the Congress has been preparing to field candidates for the election. Shashi Tharoor had hinted a day ago and now Manish Tewari has come out in the open. Three G23 leaders Anand Sharma, Bhupendra Hooda and Prithvi Raj Chavan met Ghulam Nabi Azad, who resigned from the Congress last evening.
