New Delhi: The crucial meeting between senior disgruntled leaders of the Congress known as G23 and interim party chief Sonia Gandhi will be held at her residence on Saturday morning at 10 a.m. which will also be attended by former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and former party chief Rahul Gandhi.
This will perhaps be the first face to face meeting between them after 23 top leaders wrote to Sonia Gandhi demanding sweeping reforms in the party.
The meeting is being seen as a move towards "reconciliation" among the warring factions, who were reportedly snubbed when they sought an appointment with the party chief.
Sources say Priyanka Gandhi took a step forward and decided to rope in senior leader Kamal Nath to break the ice between the faction critical of the leadership and others.
Besides Sonia, Manmohan Singh and Rahul Gandhi, several senior leaders including A. K. Antony, P Chidambaram, Ghulam Nabi Azad, Anand Sharma, Shashi Tharoor, Bhupinder Hooda, Prithvi Raj Chauhan will be present in the meeting.
Even former Madhya Pradesh chief minister Kamal Nath and party General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra will be present in the meeting.
