Yet another Congress stalwart today voiced reservations over Rahul Gandhi's likely elevation as party president, with former Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit saying there was "skepticism" over his leadership qualities and pitched for continuance of Sonia Gandhi at the helm.
The 77-year-old veteran said under the incumbent president there was a "comfort feeling" and that the party could rely on her "overpowering and very successful" leadership for its revival.
"I will not be able to give any idea what will happen or what will not happen. He (Rahul) could succeed. There is another point we must understand that the overpowering and very successful leadership of Mrs Sonia Gandhi is there. So there is a comfort feeling with her," Dikshit told in an interview.
