New Delhi: The draft
resolutions to be adopted at the Congress plenary are likely to
include the party's projection as one with a "pan-India
existence", and ask the government to probe right-wing groups'
links with terror, party sources said.
Party chief Sonia Gandhi chaired a meeting of the subjects
committee to finalise the political, economic and foreign affairs
resolutions which will be moved and passed during the three-day
event.
Party sources said the political resolution will lay stress on the
Congress being "the only national party which has a pan-India
existence".
It will also touch on issues of probity in public life and the
internal security challenges facing the country.
They said that some members suggested that the links of right-wing
Hindu groups, like the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), with
terror should be "seriously investigated".
