It is worth noting that the votes will be counted on October 19 and results will be declared on the same day.
Speaking to media persons after voting concluded, K Meghachandra stated that with the election of a new party chief, the Congress party will be strengthened even more.
He also credited the Gandhi family for their contribution to the Congress party and the country, adding that people are well aware of the sacrifices made by the Gandhi family especially in the country's struggle for freedom.
In this regard he mentioned the sacrifices of Indira Gandhi and Mahatma Gandhi and asserted that the Gandhi family has never been involved in any 'anti-people' endeavours.
Leader of Congress Legislature Party and former Chief Minister O Ibobi noted that the Congress presidential election was conducted in a democratic manner.
He then claimed that no other political party had held similar elections in the past and exuded confidence of none occurring in the future.
He further stated that the non-participation of the Gandhi family in this Congress presidential election will cement the party and go on to make it even stronger before the LS polls.
