Addressing a press conference, member of national executives Mayank Gandhi stated that party was declaring list seven executive members along with convenor Devendra Wankhede, Secretary Rajesh Puglia and Treasurer Girish Nandgaonkar as it was in the process to enrol more members. The party had announced 50 per cent reservation for women in every layer. He further assured that entire team would be in place by January 8, 2013.
Gandhi also cleared party’s stand on Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and said that Swayamsevak can join the party but, they would not act as office bearers as the party does not believe in Hindu Nationalism of RSS.

Gandhi also criticised the VIP culture and large number of police force deployed to secure only a few important political leaders and claimed that hence even national capital is not secure.
