A six-time former MLA and a prominent contender for the post, Yadav took to the social media platform ‘X’ (formerly Twitter) to express his disappointment and concern over the decision.
Congress has appointed Rao Narendra, a former minister, as President of the HPCC.
“Given the Congress party's steadily declining performance in Haryana, the party needs to introspect on today's decision. Rahul Gandhi's desire was to appoint a person with a clean, unblemished, and youthful leadership as president of the Haryana Congress. However, today's decision appears to be the exact opposite. This has led to a complete decline in the morale of party workers and cadre,” said Yadav on his post on ‘X’, tagging senior leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, KC Venugopal and BK Hariprasad.
