He said that Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra should step aside to “save the Congress.” The party fired him in Tamil Nadu because of this.
Members of the All India Congress Committee (AICC) also said that Congress alums like Mamata Banerjee, Jagan Mohan Reddy, and K Chandrasekhara Rao should come back and make people believe in them again, as they did when they worked for the party.
It’s important to build people’s trust in India, says Narayanan. Bring in former Congress leaders who have a good track record, like Mamata Banerjee or Jagan Mohan Reddy or Sharad Pawar or K Chandrasekhar Rao (KCR), and ask them to merge with the Congress party.

“This will give outsiders and allies more confidence that the Congress will come out of the ground. When people start to see things, they start to have power and money (sic). If Mamata Banerjee comes back, she will convince the others, too “He said that.
Narayanan is a rare party leader from the south who speaks out against the Gandhis. Not one of the 23 people who wrote to Sonia Gandhi two years ago asking for an organisational change and a full-time and visible leader is part of the “G-23.”
He said Mamata Banerjee could merge her Trinamool Congress with the Congress now that she has been a Chief Minister and wants to be Prime Minister. He said she has “better odds of becoming Prime Minister” if she joins the Congress than the Trinamool.
In the end, Mr Narayanan said that Sonia Gandhi should be in the lead and her children should step back, and he didn’t mince words about it.
“I love Rahul Gandhi, but he hasn’t been able to live up to his promises. Sonia Gandhi has a history of getting things done. I want Sonia Gandhi to be on the same level as everyone else in the group that makes the decisions. I want Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi to stay out of the way, as well “An Indian Congress leader in the state of Tamil Nadu said that.
Elections were recently held in Punjab, Goa, Uttarakhand, and Manipur. The Congress lost Punjab and didn’t win any of them. After the latest mess up, the “G-23” dissenters called for a new leader.
She and Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra wanted to step down after the party lost. The party rejected the idea.
Today, Sonia Gandhi looked like she was sending a message to the people who didn’t want to work for her party: “Our dedication and determination, as well as our spirit of perseverance, is being put to the test. Unity at all levels of our huge organisation is very important, and I will do everything I can to make sure it happens.”
