I would like to add to this:

Gandhi named 76-year-old Singh as the CPP leader to lead the government at a CPP meeting in the Central Hall of Parliament and this was unanimously approved by the members amid thumping of desks.

Fresh from the spectacular victory in the Lok Sabha polls, the meeting saw Gandhi, who was re-elected the CPP chairperson, telling Congress workers to put the party before self, remain disciplined and united to emerge even stronger in the future.

"The people's verdict tells us that above all else they crave honest and capable governance and decency in public life. We must not disappoint them," Gandhi said.

In his acceptance speech, Singh said the "impressive mandate" came with "the challenge of rising expectations".
