Following the three-day ‘chintin shivir’ of BJP-led Haryana Government last month, the Congress is also gearing up to hold its ‘manthan shivirs’ beginning January 15 to reach out to the people of the State.
Eyeing 2019 assembly and parliamentary polls, the state Congress has decided to hold three “manthan shivirs” to strengthen the party in Haryana.
Ashok Tanwar, Haryana Congress chief while talking to the mediapersons here said that three “shivirs” will be of three days duration each.
The “manthan shivirs” are different from the "chintan shivir" of the ruling BJP Government, he said.
As per the schedule chalked out by the party, the first shivir will be held at Gurugram from Janaury 15 to 17, while the second will be held at Chandigarh- Panchkula tentatively on January 29, 30 and 31. The last Shivir will be held at Sirsa in the first week of February. Around 1000 leaders from the State will attend these shivirs, said Tanwar.
Speaking about the proposed cycle yatra, Tanwar said, “Through this yatra, which we intend to start from north Haryana sometime in mid-February, the party will touch each and every assembly constituency and connect with the people of the State.”
