Meghalaya Congress urges Rahul Gandhi to continue as party president

The opposition Congress in Meghalaya on Friday unanimously resolved to urge Congress president Rahul Gandhi to continue as leader of the party and reconsider his earlier decision while stating that the party under his leadership would see brighter days.
Earlier, Rahul Gandhi had tendered his resignation from the presidentship of the party following the poor performance of the Congress in the just-concluded Lok Sabha elections. 

“It is the considered opinion of the Meghalaya Pradesh Congress Committee (MPCC) that the exit of Gandhi from the presidentship of the party at this juncture, when the party is faced with multiple challenges from divisive and disruptive forces, would lead to total disintegration of the party,” MPCC president Dr. Celestine Lyngdoh and working president James S. Lyngdoh said in a letter to the Congress president.
A meeting of the MPCC was also held at Congress Bhavan in Shillong on Friday.
