<P> Narasimha Rao too held both the Congress President and the Prime Minister's posts . Sitaram Kesri held the post after INC was voted out . But as the INC never returned to power under his leadership, he didn't hold the two posts together . </P> <P> During 2000--09, INC did not host a conference for the first time in history . In 2004, when the INC was voted back into power, Manmohan Singh became the first Prime Minister, not to be the president of the party . Sonia Gandhi is the longest serving president of the Congress party, having held the office for nineteen years from 1998 to 2017 .
