Senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor is said to be exploring the possibility of running for the post of Congress President but is yet to take a final call in the matter.
He declined to comment if he will be making efforts to become President but in an article that he wrote for the Malayalam daily ‘Mathrubhumi’, he has called for a ”free and fair” election.

The elections for Congress President will be held on October 17 and results will be declared on October 19. The notification for the election will be issued on September 22, filing of nomination will begin on September 24 and go on till the 30.
Senior leader of the Congress party, Salman Khurshid said that Rahul Gandhi is the number one and only choice to take over as the party chief after the schedule for the election of the AICC president was announced.

Other party workers and leaders shared the views expressed by Salman Khurshid. The leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha, Mallikarjun Kharge also stated that Rahul was the best choice for the post as nobody else in the party has a pan-India appeal.
Rahul resigned as Congress president after the party suffered its second consecutive defeat in the 2019 parliamentary elections.Sonia Gandhi took over the reins as interim president.
