Former Union Minister and Sirsa MP Kumari Selja today said although there was widespread hope for a Congress government, the reasons for the party’s defeat are now being reviewed by the high command. “The workers are definitely disappointed by the loss, but they are not disheartened. Instead of worrying, the party is deeply reflecting on this matter,” she said.

Speaking to the media, Selja emphasised the importance of the organisation, which had not been fully operational for the past 10-12 years. She noted that the party’s fact-finding committee would engage with workers to uncover the reasons for the defeat. “Only after the committee’s report will the high command make a decision,” she added.

Selja explained that although no one anticipated a loss, the party is taking feedback from everyone involved before making any conclusions. When asked about the potential role of EVMs in the defeat, she said that the Congress had raised concerns with the Election Commission and awaited their response.

Regarding possible changes in the state organisation, she clarified, “I can’t comment on that as it falls under the high command’s authority.” Selja also addressed claims that internal conflict led to the loss, dismissing reports of Rahul Gandhi’s anger, stating, “No official statement has been made by him on this matter.”

She reiterated the significance of having an organisational structure, particularly at the state and block levels, as it provides workers with their identity and recognition. “At the state and block levels, there was no organisational structure in Congress, and it’s through the organisation that the party functions and workers gain recognition. Although the workers are disappointed with the loss, they will continue to work with renewed energy,” Selja said.
