New Delhi, March 17 (TIWN) After issuing a statement on "collective" and "inclusive" leadership, Congress dissenters in the group have stated that they are not averse to Sonia Gandhi's leadership but removal of those responsible for party's loss is a must.

Congress dissenters, or the ‘G-23’ group seeking a sweeping overhaul in the party’s functioning, met on Wednesday. After the meeting, the group issued a statement, which read: “We believe that the only way forward for the Congress is to adopt the model of collective and inclusive leadership and decision making at all level… in order to oppose the BJP, it is necessary to strengthen the Congress party. We demand that the Congress party initiate a dialogue with like-minded forces to create a platform to pave way for a credible alternative in 2024.”
