The Congress’s latest round of election defeats has put an uncomfortable spotlight on Rahul Gandhi’s most trusted lieutenant, C.P. Joshi, the general secretary in charge of the eight northeastern states as well as Bihar, West Bengal, and the Andaman and Nicobar islands.

Joshi’s charge of 10 states makes him an exception to the Congress chief’s ‘one general secretary, one state’ policy. But after the latest defeats, the knives are out.

Nagaland Congress president Kewe Khape Therie has become the first active party leader to demand his resignation as general secretary in charge of the northeast.

According to Therie, he had informed previous Congress president Sonia Gandhi in August 2017 of the party’s condition in the state. However, nothing was done.
