Hundreds of their supporters also joined the party.Raina said the Congress is ruled by one family and Sonia Gandhi’s return at the helm of party affairs recently proves that.
He said the Congress is not able to find a single leader out of the Nehru-Gandhi family and the time will come soon when it will not be able to find even a single activist outside the clan.Khanna said his party is a perfect blend of patriotism and professionalism which acts as a catalyst in its growth.
He said that the party is able to pave the way for a new India which is evident in decisions taken by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Article 370.
