AICC general secretary K.C. Venugopal on Tuesday night said there would be no discussion on the leadership issue in Karnataka till the next Assembly elections and that it had been unanimously resolved to fight unitedly against the BJP’s “misrule”.
Briefing mediapersons in Hubballi after the Political Affairs Committee (PAC) meeting in which Rahul Gandhi, party MP, took part, Mr. Venugopal said a clear message had been given in the meeting about the leadership issue and that public utterances on the party’s internal issues would not be tolerated.
He said knowingly or unknowingly public statements on party issues had been issued and sometimes a few leaders had fallen into the “media trap”, adding to the confusion. The issue was also deliberated upon and it had been communicated clearly that such utterances would not be tolerated henceforth.
