After drubbings, Cong plans central election dept
The New Indian Express Kalaburagi
|February 24, 2025
BATTERED by a string of electoral losses, the Congress plans to set up a central election management department to revive the party's wilting political fortunes.
This initiative is one of the key goals outlined in the Udaipur Declaration, adopted by the Congress Working Committee (CWC) during a three-day Nav Sankalp Shivir in May 2022. The new election management cell aims to implement much-needed reforms in the party's electoral strategies.
According to party sources, the election management department will be responsible for preparing the party well in advance for every election, ensuring effective management and achieving the desired outcomes. Although the party is yet to announce the head of the department, discussions around potential young leaders for the role are ongoing.
