Rahul Gandhi meets Mallikarjun Kharge, Bihar leaders also present

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday (November 29, 2025) met party chief Mallikarjun Kharge and is learnt to have discussed the political scenario in Bihar, where the party was decimated in the recently-concluded assembly elections.

Sources said Mr. Gandhi drove down to Mr. Kharge's residence where he met leaders from Bihar.

Party in-charge for Bihar Krishna Allavaru and State party chief Rajesh Ram were also present during the meeting.

Mr. Gandhi and Mr. Kharge had earlier met Bihar leaders and all contesting candidates at Indira Bhawan in batches to ascertain the reasons for the party's drubbing at the hustings.

The candidates are learnt to have cited the NDA's ₹10,000 incentive scheme for women, internal squabbling and differences within Bihar Congress and late distribution of party tickets as some of the reasons for the defeat in the polls.
