Former Member of Parliament and Congress leader Priya Dutt on Wednesday said that her party suffered from autoimmune disease.

"Congress has shown repeatedly that it suffers from an autoimmune disease. Congress destroys Congress. We need to be treated from within to be healthy again," Dutt twitted.

While speaking to news channel NDTV, Dutt said that Rahul Gandhi's role should not be truncated in the unprecedented crisis.

"He is a good leader, he is trying to do his best. He is trying to lead the party in a certain direction, (but) it has not worked for a long time now," Dutt told NDTV.

She further said that the Congress will have to work really hard as "we have not been able to rectify our mistakes".
