Chandigarh, July 26

In their first meeting with Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) chief Navjot Singh Sidhu, heads of 35 frontal organisations and cells of the party today aired their grievances over being neglected in the government. The meeting was also attended by working presidents Kuljit Nagra, Sukhwinder Danny, Sangat Singh Gilzian and Pawan Goel.

Stressing better coordination between the state government and PCC, the participants pointed out that implementing the 18-point agenda of the party high command was possible with the support of the Chief Minister.

Some participants said party workers had still not become partner in the power-sharing. It was also pointed out that there was a need to focus on Hindus, Dalits and OBCs as the ministers or party leaders representing the communities had not done much.

Sidhu held detailed discussions with the four working presidents about rebuilding and strengthening the party further at the grassroots. Sidhu sought to learn details of their working and how they can revive the defunct departments and cells. — TNS
