"Congress has always encouraged younger people to lead the party. Time has come for Rahul Gandhi to take charge of the party," Singh told reporters.

The Congress, however, said it was Singh's personal remark.

Congress suffered a massive blow in the Lok Sabha polls earlier this year where it won only 44 seats.
