Congress President Sonia Gandhi strongly defended Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and the Congress-led UPA government, slamming the opposition for leveling "baseless" allegations.
At the Congress Working Committee (CWC) meeting, the highest decision body of the Congress, Sonia Gandhi opened the session by throwing her lot behind the PM, Centre and the Congress party.
The UPA Chairperson said that there were economic hardships concerning the common man but entire world was passing through a tough phase and India too has to face the challenge. Sonia Gandhi also trained her guns at the rivals, saying the implementation of a lot of policies was done by states but non-Congress governments were not cooperating as was expected in a democracy.
Sonia Gandhi said "People will behave with the party in the same manner as its image would emerge in their mind based on the opinion they form about us," she said, adding that when a political evaluation takes place, it is always based on the organisation and not an individual.
"This is a test for us as a Congress worker. Not to understand this will be a big mistake. It is a matter of caution, warning and challenge for all," Sonia Gandhi reminded.
The Congress president said she was confident that party men could take on any challenge, "provided we do not demoralise them in their politics."
Sonia Gandhi, in a blistering attack on the opposition and civil society for levelling "baseless" allegations against the Prime Minister and the party, said it was part of a conspiracy and told party men to fight back.
