Sonia Gandhi on Saturday was chosen as interim chief of the party by Congress Working Committee and has taken over leadership of the party from her son Rahul Gandhi who had succeeded her in 2017. In 1998, she had taken over the leadership in challenging circumstances and now as interim chief, she faces a perhaps even tougher task with Congress having lost two successive Lok Sabha elections is facing resignations of party leaders across states as well as battling some apparent ideological confusion.

The decision signals the party's desire to fall back on her experience during one of its worst periods and also the party's continued dependence on the Nehru-Gandhi family for leadership.

The decision was made after consultations with state Congress chiefs, Congress legislative party leaders, MPs, and secretaries late in the evening. Rahul Gandhi had offered to resign in May at the CWC meeting following the party's debacle in the Lok Sabha elections. Though the CWC declined his offer, Gandhi insisted on his resignation being accepted and the party went through a period of political uncertainty at the top.
