Rahul to decide on playing bigger role: Sonia Gandhi

Wednesday, Jul 18, 2012: Congress President Sonia Gandhi on Wednesday said it is for Rahul Gandhi to decide for himself on playing a larger role in the party.


“No one can take a decision on his behalf. He has to take a decision,” she said in Parliament House after Vice President Hamid Ansari filed his nomination paper for a second term.


Her comments came against the backdrop of comments by senior Congress leaders like Digvijay Singh and Salman Khurshid clamouring for a larger role for Rahul in the party.
