Will Prashant Kishor join the Congress? Speculations after meeting with Gandhis

A day after Prashant Kishor held discussions with Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, speculation is rife that the poll strategist may join the Congress.

Several media reports citing sources say that Kishor may consider joining India's main opposition party. All three Gandhis were part of the discussions with Prashant Kishor at Rahul Gandhi's residence on Tuesday.

The meeting was not about the Punjab or Uttar Pradesh polls as widely speculated, but about "something bigger" according to a report by NDTV, adding that there could be an indication that Prashant Kishor might be looking at a significant role in getting the Congress battle-ready for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
