Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar says the party will stay influential in opposition but may not always lead it.

Mani Shankar Aiyar, a veteran Congress leader, stated that while the Congress party will remain a significant force in India's opposition bloc, it may not always lead it. The opposition bloc, formed last year to challenge the BJP, has faced leadership struggles. Aiyar believes the party can still maintain influence even without leading, highlighting a shift in the political landscape. He also reflected on his relationship with the party and the Gandhis, noting a generational gap and a current desire for conformism within the Congress.
