"I have not taken one rupee from Mother India, I am afraid of nothing, and I will fight back," he announced amid cheers. The family is facing investigations into the functioning of several party trusts in which various members of the family are represented.
According to the Udaipur Declaration adopted Sunday, the party will ensure no office-bearer will remain in his post for more than five years. All party organisations, starting with the Congress Working Committee, will have at least 50 per cent members below the age of 50.
