A resolution on general issues proposed at the CWC meeting invited a brief discussion after it blamed government for the situation in Bangladesh. However, CWC member Shashi Tharoor said the sentence needed to be rephrased as government or BJP could not be held responsible for the situation in the neighbouring country. Tharoor said government can be accused of diplomatic failure but not blamed for the unrest there. Sources said the line was then dropped. Congress did not pass the resolutions placed before the CWC to ensure that the focus stayed on agitational programme on MGNREGA.During discussion, it was suggested that non-BJP CMs be asked to issue a statement condemning attacks on Christians this week.
