The Congress plenary on Sunday authorsied party president Rahul Gandhi to constitute the Congress Working Committee (CWC).
The proposal was adopted with a consensus by raising of hands.
Proposing the matter, party leader Ghulam Nabi Azad said that in the history of Congress, election to the CWC had been held only about a dozen times.
Most of the times it has been left to the Congress president to constitute the CWC. Elections were last held for the CWC in 1997, when Sitaram Kesri was the Congress president.
The party's 84th plenary session began in New Delhi on Saturday.
