Arvinder Singh Lovely back as Delhi Congress chief
Congress on Thursday appointed Arvinder Singh Lovely as president of Delhi PCC in place of outgoing chief Anil Chaudhary. This is the second stint of Lovely as the Delhi PCC president, which becomes all the more conspicuous given he had quit the Congress and breached the ideological line to join the BJP in 2017 only to return after a couple of months. His return as the PCC chief coincides with the AAP's push for inking an alliance with the Delhi Congress for the Lok Sabha polls. Lovely, a former minister in the erstwhile Sheila Dikshit-led government, who had a string of victories from his East Delhi constituency till the ascent of AAP in Delhi, has an 'interesting record' given he was PCC chief during 2013-15 and yet chose to desert the party and crossed over to the BJP. «Lovely's return as PCC chief confirms the high command no longer considers ideological infidelity a crime...,» quipped a senior Congress leader after Lovely's appointment was announced despite some internal party resistance. Interestingly, after his return to the Congress by affirming loyalty to the then party president Rahul Gandhi, Lovely also joined the G23 group that took on the high command by seeking party reforms. After the announcement, Lovely vowed to work to revive Congress in Delhi and said people are now looking towards Rahul Gandhi to lead them.
