Congress Leader's "Penance" Post As Party Draws Fire For Rajya Sabha Picks

Pawan Khera, known for his feisty defence of the party line in TV debates and media interactions, was being considered a frontrunner for an upper house berth.

The Congress leadership has come under criticism after it left out prominent leaders, including party spokesperson Pawan Khera, while selecting candidates for Rajya Sabha. ‘शायद मेरी तपस्या में कुछ कमी रह गई'

Mr Khera, known for his feisty defence of the party line in TV debates and media interactions, expressed his disappointment with a Hindi tweet after the Congress released its list of 10 candidates for the upper house.

"Maybe there is something missing in my penance," Mr Khera tweeted in Hindi.
