Call to strengthen Congress further

Addressing the Congress Membership programme at Gurubhavan on Saturday, he said that of late the self-centred politics is striving and Chief Minister who should safeguard the interests of people is crying on television over his failure to safeguard the interest of certain ministers.

“There is a need for able leadership in the State,” he said and called upon people to strengthen the Congress further.
