Priyanka, Pilot to get top slots in Congress soon

Sonia Gandhi is keen to induct new, young faces in the organisation to revitalise it and make it capable of taking on the Bharatiya Janata Party. Kamal Nath called on Sonia Gandhi soon after his return from the United States on Saturday. Rajesh Pilot met her before sheleft for Amethi.

Though Sonia gave no indication to them of the posts to be offered to them, sources in the Congress president8217;s office say that announcement regarding their induction in the AICC may be made soon. While one post of general secretary has fallen vacant with Madhavrao Scindia8217;s elevation as deputy leader in the Lok Sabha, another general secretary R K Dhawan may also be given some other responsibility in the organisation. Sonia has not filled the three vacancies in the Congress Working Committee caused with the expulsion of Sharad Pawar, Tariq Anwar and P A Sangma. Apart from nominating Kamal Nath to the CWC she may also induct two other members into the committee.
