After the Committee for Youth Affairs headed by the Punjab Congress president and former Youth Congress chief Amarinder Singh Raja Brar recommended 65 years as the retirement age for party leaders, sources said that the Congress Working Committee (CWC) has decided that this will be implemented in the party after 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

The youth committee had recommended the Congressmen to retire at 65 years, to which the party's interim president Sonia Gandhi also agreed, but got a deferment for two years. The Chintan Shivir was organized in Udaipur after a gap of nine years. It was attended by around 430 Congress leaders.

After a long discussion about the retirement age of Congress leaders, it was concluded that at present it would be a bad idea to take such a decision in hurry, during the bad phase of the party, as it would not be the right decision to make all the big leaders, who have taken command in their respective states, sit at home immediately.
