The Congress, on Sunday, announced wide-ranging organizational reforms to make the party battle-ready for the next round of assembly and Lok Sabha polls, stressing wider representation to those under 50 years of age and enforcing ‘one person, one post’ and ‘one family, one ticket’ rules with riders.
These announcements come after the party’s three-day brainstorming conclave to prepare for the next round of assembly elections and the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. The party decided to have the conclave after its drubbing in five state assembly elections earlier this year. The Congress party also decided to set up three new departments — public insight, election management, and national training.
