The filing of nomination for Congress presidential elections, which is likely to see a contest between Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot and party leader Shashi Tharoor, is scheduled to start from Saturday.
The nominations will be filed between 24 September and 30 September, while the voting will be held on 17 October. The results for the new Congress chief will be declared on 19 October.
The grand old party will see a non-Gandhi chief after 25 years with Sitaram Kesri being the last in 1997 when he defeated Sharad Pawar and Rajesh Pilot. Sonia Gandhi replaced Kesri as party chief in 1998 and remains the longest-serving party president.
