In the 2019 Lok Sabha election, the Congress party managed to win just 53 seats compared to 303 seats won by the Narendra Modi led BJP. Taking moral responsibility of the defeat, Rahul Gandhi also submitted his resignation as president of the Congress Party. The party since then is finding a replacement of Gandhi.
