Saturday, 10 April 2021 | PNS | Lucknow

To put the Congress as senior contender in the UP assembly elections next year, Uttar Pradesh Congress is making all efforts to build up a strong organisation at ground level and the result of the panchayat elections will be crucial for it.

"We have already set up organisation in every block and at panchayat level and are making all efforts to win a big number of seats in the ongoing three-tier panchayat elections as it would help to make the party as a serious contender in the assembly elections in 2022," claimed UP Congress President Ajay Kumar Lallu.

He said that besides strengthening the Uttar Pradesh Congress Committee, they had appointed senior leaders as in-charges of districts besides making a committee under the respective district president so that right and young candidates could be selected and they could set a platform for the party for the final assembly election next year.

District president of Congress in Lucknow, Ved Prakash Tripathi, said that they were contesting all the panchayat seats in the state capital and had declared their candidates who had filed their nominations. He said that to motivate the contestants as well as party workers, the party had announced that those performing well in the panchayat elections would be considered for the assembly polls.

Tripathi said that Congress had launched its poll campaign much ahead of announcement of panchayat polls and the party workers had already made contacts with the local villagers.
