Shimla: The efforts of senior congressional leaders to placate former Union Minister Virbhadra Singh have failed to bear positive results as the prime minister on five occasions has refused to change his decision to resign from the party committees formed by the coming assembly polls.
The sources said Virbhadra Singh, who had felt marginalized in the party for quite some time, has accumulated pressure in the high command group for their decision as to the last two days, top leaders have been meeting with him to resolve differences. Singh is planned to discuss the issue with his supporters in Shimla on Monday.
While the top leaders of Congress, including Ahmed Patel and Digvijay Singh met him on Friday, Chief Minister of Delhi Sheila Dixit, who was recently appointed chairman of the selection of Himachal Pradesh, met Singh at his residence New Delhi on Tuesday for about two hours. Virbhadra advocates say ignoring the basis of mass of Virbhadra Singh would not be easy for the Congress high command.
"At the meeting, which lasted about two hours, Dixit sure to give due respect to Virbhadra Singh in the decision making process and announced that Singh would oppose the election, which is against the previous position that no oppose "a leader next to him said.
In his letter, Virbhadra Singh has also indicated how they feel the MLAs are being disturbed and gave examples of the three lines of action which rivals have been appointed to the state executive recently. "In the letter, Virbhadra Singh has informed Sonia Gandhi, that if things went well, then it would be impossible for him to work," said a senior leader.
Congressional leaders about Virbhdara Singh said that this time the final battle had begun and you can go anywhere now. "If the top command does not take into account the demands raised by Virbhadra Singh, then the option of forming a new political team is open for us," said a supporter Virbhadra.
