New Delhi: Congress upped the ante as the interim president Sonia Gandhi launched a volley of verbal attacks on the ruling government and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). During a meeting of General Secretaries, State In-charges, and Pradesh Congress Committee Presidents at party headquarters in Delhi, Sonia Gandhi said "we must fight the diabolical campaign of BJP & RSS ideologically." 

In her opening remarks during the meeting, Congress interim president said, "the fight to defend our democracy, our Constitution and the Congress Party’s ideology begins with being fully prepared to identify and counter false propaganda."

While asking the party to turn their focus to defeat BJP, Sonia Gandhi said "we must do so with conviction and expose their lies before the people if we are to win this battle."

"I would like to re-emphasise the paramount need for discipline and unity. What should matter to each and every one of us is the strengthening of the organization. This must override personal ambitions," Sonia Gandhi further said.

Many leaders including Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi were present during today's meeting. Lok Sabha MPs Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury and Navjot Singh Sidhu were also present in this meeting.
