At the same time, Naresh Gujral said we can be united on the farmer's issue.Importantly Akhilesh Yadav and Lalu Yadav stressed on strong and united opposition against BJP while both leaders added that Congress should use the experience of leaders like Kapil Sibal.The timing of the meeting is also interesting when the monsoon session of Parliament has few days left and opposition has tried to show the unity when it comes to taking on Central Government on the issues like Pegasus, Farmers Agitation, and Inflation.But it's more alarming for the Congress Party which is trying to showcase and built-up the leadership of Rahul Gandhi as the Wayanad MP is leading the front from the opposition and getting instrumental in opposition party floor leaders meetings in Parliament.Rahul Gandhi hosted a breakfast for Opposition Party leaders at the Constitution Club in Delhi, a few days back and Congress Party had claimed in a press conference that it's a picture of 2024.However, the gathering at Sibal's residence has been organized on a day when Rahul Gandhi is in Srinagar.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
