Daughter of former President and Congress leader Pranab Mukherjee, Sharmistha Mukherjee, alleged on Sunday that decay had set in the Congress party.
In a post on X, she said: “When baba passed away, Congress didn’t even bother to call CWC for a condolence meeting. A senior leader told me it’s not done for Presidents. That’s utter rubbish as I learned later from baba’s diaries that on KR Narayanan’s death, CWC was called and condolence message was drafted by baba only.”
Speaking on the row over memorial for former PM Manmohan Singh, Mukherjee said she would not venture into the controversy as she is not part of the Congress anymore and has quit politics.
