New Delhi: More than 400 delegates from across the nations spent three days in Udaipur discussing ways to rejuvenate the Congress.
As the three-day Chintan Shivir ends on Sunday, the party will lay down " Nav Sankalp" declaration, reportedly to introduce several organisational reforms.
Various panels will submit their reports to Congress President Sonia Gandhi, just as the final round of deliberations are underway, according to The Indian Express,.
CWC will make the final approval of the reports submitted to it.
Meanwhile, leaders including Sonia Gandhi , Rahul Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge, Ghulam Nabi Azad, P Chidambaram and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra attend the CWC meeting.
Electoral defeats prompted the leadership to listen to leaders from across the nation for restructuring the party, alongside finding ways to fight BJP.
During the opening session, Sonia Gandhi asked the party to " self-reflect" in the face of the " unprecedented" situation it was facing.
The meeting discussed some ambitious reforms including age-limit for leaders to hold organizational positions as well as for contesting elections. Another important idea was implementing a term limit for Rajya Sabha members and enforcing "one family, one ticket" rule.
The party will introduce 50 per cent representation at all levels to those below 50 years of age, beginning with the Congress Working Committee.
On the final day, the Chintan Shivir discussed ways to tackle BJP and went at length brainstorming whether to use Hindu or Hindutva in the report.
