Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi has said self-criticism is needed in party forums but it should not be done to erode self-confidence and morale, as she asserted that it is time “to repay our debt to the party”. The message is seen a veiled dig at the critics of the grand old party.

In the Chintan Shivir, there will be a discussion on the matters related to organisation, agriculture, economic condition of the country. After that, a paper will be prepared and in the last Sonia Gandhi will take the decision,  Chhattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel Told ANI , in Raipur

As per PTI report, ahead of the Congress’ Chintan Shivir in Udaipur from May 13 to 15, she sought the cooperation of all leaders in sending across the message of unity, cohesion and commitment to ensure the party’s accelerated revival, while underlining that “there are no magic wands”.

Addressing top Congress leaders at the party’s working committee meeting, she said the Chintan Shivir should not become a ritual and it should herald a restructured organisation to meet the ideological, electoral and managerial challenges ahead.

“Self-criticism is of course needed in our party forums. But this should not be done in a manner that erodes self-confidence and morale and an atmosphere of gloom and doom prevails. To the contrary, we are beholden to put our heads together and together, collectively overcome the challenges that face us,” Gandhi said.
