Girija Vyas re-elected PCC chief

JAIPUR, NOV. 25. Ms. Girija Vyas was today unanimously re-elected president of the Rajasthan Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC). Her name was proposed by senior Congress leaders, Mr. Nawal Kishore Sharma and Mr. Natwar Singh, and seconded by the Chief Minister, Mr. Ashok Gehlot, at a meeting of the electoral college at the PCC headquarters.

Later, the State election authority chief, Ms. Urmila Ben Patel, announced Ms. Vyas' election. Ms. Vyas was first appointed as the PCC chief after the then president, Mr. Ashok Gehlot, relinquished office on ``becoming the Chief Minister two years back''.

The election for the PCC chief was earlier scheduled for November 12 along with the polling for the AICC president. But the State delegates left the selection of State president to Ms. Sonia Gandhi by passing a unanimous resolution.
