Facing Flak Over Leaders' Remarks On Pahalgam, Congress Issues Statement: 'Do Not Reflect Party's Views'

The resolution comes amid reports that the congress leadership directed its leaders to refrain from making public statements that do not data-align with the party's official line on the deadly terror attack, which led to the deaths of 26 people.
The order came as several party leaders made remarks on the terror attack leading to sharp controversy and drawing criticism.
Party leader jairam ramesh, in a post on X, said that the congress Working Committee met on April 25 and passed a resolution that the leaders who speak to the media speak for themselves.
"There should be absolutely no doubt whatsoever at this most sensitive of times that the CWC resolution, the views expressed by Shri mallikarjun Kharge and Shri rahul gandhi, and the views of authorized AICC office-bearers ALONE represent the position of the INC," he added.
Several reports on monday said that congress president mallikarjun Kharge and party MP rahul gandhi were upset over leaders speaking on their own, confusing.
The bjp also hit out at the grand old party over the remarks made by several congress leaders over the pahalgam attack. bjp leaders questioned whether Congress' call for national unity was genuine or merely perfunctory, citing comments from senior congress members that, they alleged, are being exploited by pakistan to defame India.
