Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on October 17 extended his support to Mallikarjun Kharge, a candidate for the Congress presidential election, saying he will breathe new life into the grand old party.
He stated that Kharge's vast experience will assist Congress in regaining its former glory.
“Kharge sahib is a very experienced person, if a person of such a personality gets a chance, then I understand that he will breathe new life into the Congress party, his experience will come in handy and work is done only by experience, there is no substitute for experience. On the basis of that, we will all benefit from his experience,” he said.
खड़गे साहब बहुत अनुभवी व्यक्तित्व के धनी हैं ऐसे व्यक्तित्व के इंसान को अगर मौका मिलता है तो मैं समझता हूं कि कांग्रेस में नई जान फूंकेंगे, उनका अनुभव काम आएगा और अनुभव से ही काम होता है, अनुभव का कोई विकल्प नहीं होता है, उसी के आधार पर उनका लाभ हम सबको मिलेगा। pic.twitter.com/zq2XsTpUTm
