Congress has formed a manifesto committee for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections in 2024. The committee will be headed by senior leader P. Chidambaram. The committee also includes former Deputy Chief Minister of Chhattisgarh TS Singh Deo, Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, Jairam Ramesh, Shashi Tharoor and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra.

Congress has decided to adopt a two-pronged approach for the upcoming elections. The party intends to stand independently while cooperating as a member of the India Bloc. The plan was unanimously adopted during the Congress Working Committee (CWC) resolution, as announced by Congress leader KC Venugopal.

The CWC resolution calls for unity and dedication among the members given the election campaign. It emphasizes the need for discipline and collective effort. The resolution also critically examines the performance of the current government. This highlights the contradiction between the claims of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government and the ground reality.

Key issues raised include deepening social polarization, which is seen as a deliberate strategy for electoral gains. The resolution claims that democracy is under attack in India and the constitutional freedom of citizens is in danger.

Addressing a press conference, Venugopal highlighted the unanimous adoption of his proposal by the CWC. The CWC discussed various topics including the last assembly election results, the upcoming 2024 Parliament elections and the current political scenario in India. The general mood within the CWC underlines an honest and realistic assessment of the results of the recent state elections.

The upcoming ‘Hain Narayan Hum’ rally in Nagpur is an important step in the election preparations of the Congress. The state-wise reviews of the Congress President are giving direction to these efforts. The CWC also acknowledged the initiative to strengthen the party’s finances through public participation. Each member is committed to ensuring the sustainability of these efforts.
