Congress launches organisational restructuring drive in Maharashtra

Mumbai: In line with the policy of the All India Congress Committee, an organisational restructuring drive has been launched in the state to strengthen District Congress Committees by appointing district presidents across Maharashtra.

Under this campaign, national-level leaders will visit districts, interact with local workers, and oversee the selection of district presidents. Alongside this, the Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee (MPCC) will also carry out appointments at the taluka, mandal, and village levels.

Emphasis is on strengthening the organisation, MPCC President Harshvardhan Sapkal said this year has been declared the “year of organization.”

The organisational restructuring drive began nationwide and commenced in Maharashtra on March 27. Recommendations will be finalised by May 1, after which district presidents will be appointed. The state will have 72 district presidents and 750 taluka presidents.

Village-level units will also be established to strengthen the organisation at the grassroots. Additionally, appointments will be made for district and taluka presidents of the Youth Congress, Mahila Congress, and SC, ST, and OBC departments.
