Bhubaneswar: Speculation is again rife over a possible change of guard in Odisha Pradesh Congess Committee (PCC) as AICC vice president has called on senior leaders of the party from Odisha for a meeting.
The senior leaders of the Congress will be leaving for New Delhi on September 5, official sources said.
The state leaders will meet Rahul Gandhi and discussion on PCC selection and other issues relating to organisational restructuring are likely to be taken up at the meeting.
The development came after the team of AICC central observers submitted its report after assessing the party’s situation in Odisha in the backdrop of growing demand over PCC change in the State.
