The initiative seeks to strengthen the Congress organisation at the grassroots level and energise party workers, laying the groundwork for a stronger presence in the upcoming polls

The meeting was attended by General Secretary in-charge Harish Choudhary, AICC Organisation in-charge K. C. Venugopal, Patwari, Nath, former CM Digvijaya Singh, Leader of Opposition in the MP Assembly Umang Singhar and other party leaders were present

During his Visit to Bhopal, Rahul Gandhi also paid tribute to former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi

Even the former state Congress president Arun Yadav and former MP Sajjan Verma, senior Congress leader Vivek Tankha, former LoP Ajay Singh and former Mahila Congress president Shobha Ojha were among those who attended the meeting

The Congress was in power in Madhya Pradesh for a brief period between December 2018 and March 2020 under the leadership of Kamal Nath. However, apart from that short tenure, the party has remained out of power in the state since 2003. It is worth noting that the next state assembly elections are scheduled to be held in 2028
