AMRITSAR, July 31: Congress president Sitaram Kesri today emphatically ruled out an indefinite support to the United Front Government and said the party would review its stand once “We feel we are capable of coming to power”.

Replying to questions here, Kesri said his party’s support to the Gujral Government would continue but declined to divulge any time-frame. His priority at the moment, the Congress president said, was to strengthen the organisation. Asked why Congress voted in favour of the Rabri Devi Government in Bihar when it sought a vote of confidence, Kesri said he had given a free hand to the State unit to take a decision in this regard.
