After G-23 demands, Congress Working Committee to meet 'very soon'

A day after the G-23 leaders raised demands for an urgent  Congress Working Committee (CWC) meet, party spokesperson indicated such a meet was on the anvil. 

Randeep Surjewala told news agency PTI, "Before leaving for Shimla, Congress president Sonia Gandhi had already indicated that a CWC meeting shall be called very soon. Accordingly, the CWC meeting shall be held in the coming days." 

Senior Congress leaders Ghulam Nabi Azad and Kapil Sibal, who are part of a group of 23 leaders (G-23), said that such a meeting should be called in the face of multiple desertions and turmoil in the organisation. Sibal had also raised questions on the decision-making process in the party in the absence of a regular president and demanded dialogue where all senior leaders would be heard.
