New Delhi: Shashi Tharoor and Sachin Pilot are among the 39 members appointed to Congress Working Committee (CWC) by party president Mallikarjun Kharge on Sunday.
The list also includes Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, Manmohan Singh, Adhir Ranjan Choudhary, A K Antony, and Anand Sharma, among others.
Notably, Tharoor, who contested Congress President poll last year against Kharge, and Sharma were signatory to the letter written by the G-23 group demanding reforms in the party in 2020. Pilot, on the other hand, has been locked in a leadership tussle with Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot since 2018.
Pilot is likely to be made in-charge of a big state, NDTV reported quoting sources.
It is for the first time that the Congress constituted its top-decision since Kharge took charge as its president in October 2022. This has come months ahead of crucial assembly elections in states like Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh and eight months ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
