Madhya Pradesh Congress prepares for Rahul Gandhi's visit to revamp party ahead of 2028 Assembly elections.
Ahead of Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi’s Bhopal visit on June 3, the Madhya Pradesh Congress on Monday said that the tour would consist of multiple meetings and discussions aimed at revamping the party in the State before the next Assembly elections in 2028.
Mr. Gandhi, who is set to visit the State just three days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi was here on May 31, is scheduled to launch the ‘Sangathan Srajan Abhiyan (Organisation Rejuvenation Campaign)’ aimed at reorganising the party in the State.
The nationwide campaign had been announced on December 26, 2024, at a Congress Working Committee (CWC) meeting held in Karnataka’s Belgavi. The party has already declared 2025 as the year to strengthen its organisation across the nation.
Addressing a press conference in Bhopal, former Union Minister and former State Congress chief Arun Yadav said, “This campaign is a decisive step towards reorganising the Congress in Madhya Pradesh and building a deep connection with the public. Under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi ji, the party is once again committed to connect with public sentiments and build a strong organisation at the grassroots level”.
“This is not just an organisational discussion, but an effort to connect the soul of the Congress with the public movement again,” Mr. Yadav added.
During his one-day visit, Mr. Gandhi is scheduled to have separate meetings with the MPCC political affairs committee, the party’s MPs and MLAs in the State, and the AICC-appointed observers, as well as the State unit-appointed in-charges for the campaign.
The party had on May 31 announced 11 additional observers for the campaign in Madhya Pradesh.
