In a move to fix accountability for the party’s decimation in the recently concluded Assembly elections in five States, Congress president Sonia Gandhi on Tuesday sacked the Congress chiefs of Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Punjab, Manipur and Goa.
Cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu is among the Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) chiefs asked to put in their papers.
The Congress’ chief spokesperson, Randeep Surjewala, claimed it was for the reorganisation of the PCCs.
