Sonia was speaking at the Congress Working Committee meeting in New Delhi. The meeting is being chaired by Congress President Rahul Gandhi.

Sonia added, ANI reported sources as saying, that to counter the RSS' organisational might and financial power, the opposition has to come together in strategic alliances. And that personal ambitions should be kept aside.
A united opposition has so far had a large amount of success at beating what had been seen as an invincible BJP by pitting one single candidate against the BJP. The single candidate ensures the opposition vote is not split.
