5 March 2013 7:48 AM IST
Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi on Monday met party MPs from Delhi and Tamil Nadu in the Congress Parliamentary Party office here and discussed ways to fine tune the party’s strategy for the next Lok Sabha polls.
Earlier, Congress president Sonia Gandhi used to meet party MPs from all the states in Parliament during every session, a practice which was carried out by Rahul this time in an indication of his growing role in the national affairs of Congress.
Talking to reporters after the interaction, Gandhi said that it was a ‘general meeting’ and that he plans to meet MPs from all states in days to come during the ongoing Budget session.
Sources said the need for having some sound system for ticket distribution was raised at the meeting in which Gandhi asked the MPs to give their feedback freely and frankly on the functioning of the government and the party.
MPs from Tamil Nadu were the first to meet him, which was followed by an hour long-meeting with Delhi MPs.
Sources said that party MP from West Delhi Mahabal Mishra demanded greater representation for migrants in the party organisation.
