Following the grand old party's improved performance in comparison to the last two Lok Sabha polls, there is internal discussion within the Congress party regarding the potential appointment of Rahul Gandhi as the Leader of Opposition in the upcoming term of Parliament, as reported by ToI. Although many within the Congress, particularly supporters of the Gandhi scion, advocate for his leadership in the Lower House, Rahul has consistently declined these requests. Nonetheless, the outcome of this year's elections may present an opportunity for Rahul Gandhi to reconsider assuming the position.
