Chronicle Reporter, Bhopal, State Congress president Kamal Nath has said this election is a test for the party men. He said there is anger and unrest against BJP among party workers. Nath urged the workers to sink the differences and do everything possible to ensure party’s victory in the forthcoming polls.
Nath said no one would dictate the workers but they must work on their own free will with self-motivation. Nath was addressing delegates of All India Congress Committee (AICC) and Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) here on Saturday.
The PCC chief said Congress leaders and workers must come out and hit the ground. Unless they come to the ground, the party cannot win the elections, he said.
Nath said his ongoing exercise of interacting with representatives of people of different castes would be over in three to four days. He said he would launch a state-wide campaign for the party after 3-4 days after completing the exercise of meeting representatives of people of different castes.
Nath said it was imperative to meet representatives of people from all sections of society and not confine the interactions to only a few societies to win elections.
He also dropped hints that the party would announce candidates in around 130 out of 230 Assembly constituencies in MP by September 15 this year.
Meanwhile, sources said AICC president Rahul Gandhi was most likely to visit MP to launch poll campaign for his party in the first week of September.
He is scheduled to blow the poll bugle after paying a visit to Omkareswar temple in Neemad and stage road shows in a bus in 20 Assembly constituencies in the region in the first phase of his poll campaigning in the state. His scheduled visit to MP would be finalised in the coming week, sources said.
