Overview
- At the CWC meeting, Digvijay Singh alleged that many “sleeper cells” were active inside Congress and warned that weak grassroots organization was undercutting campaigns.
- Hours earlier, he shared an old photo of Prime Minister Narendra Modi on X while praising RSS-BJP organizational capacity, a post that unsettled colleagues.
- Organization general secretary K.C. Venugopal countered that ongoing rebuilding efforts receive little amplification, and president Mallikarjun Kharge redirected the discussion to the protest strategy.
- Singh later clarified that he opposes RSS ideology but acknowledges its organizational effectiveness.
- BJP figures, including Sudhanshu Trivedi and Pradeep Bhandari, seized on the comments to cast the episode as open dissent against Rahul Gandhi and to portray Congress as divided.
