Sait tells Congress workers to publicise government schemes

R Murthy is Congress Mysuru city unit president

Minister for Primary and Secondary Education Tanveer Sait on Saturday called upon the Congress party workers to work at grassroots level, understand the pulse of people to strengthen the party.

He was addressing the workers at a programme after Karnataka Exhibition Authority (KEA) former chairman R Murthy took charge as the new president of the Mysuru City Congress unit, at the Congress Party office, near the city railway station.

Sait said, the party workers should bring the problems of the people to the notice of people’s representatives and get them addressed. The party workers should create awareness about the benefits extended by the government among the people to strengthen the party.

Without mentioning any names, Sait said, “A few people left the party after enjoying all powers in the Congress. Now, they are indulged in blame game politics.”
