Rahul Gandhi's Visit To Madhya Pradesh

Rahul Gandhi arrived in Bhopal on Tuesday to take part in a campaign being started with the aim of strengthening the party at the grassroots level and infusing new enthusiasm among workers for the 2028 assembly polls.

Before the launch of the campaign, the Congress leader addressed a meeting of party's political affairs committee and discussed key issues with the senior party leaders.

Earlier, MP Congress president Jitu Patwari and former chief minister Kamal Nath accorded a warm welcome to Gandhi, the leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha, as he arrived at the airport.

Gandhi later chaired a meeting at the state Congress office in Bhopal where 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.

The Congress was in power in the state for a brief period between December 2018 and March 2020 under the leadership of Kamal Nath. Apart from that, the grand old party has been out of power in Madhya Pradesh since 2003. The next state assembly elections will be due in 2028.

In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the Congress could not win a single seat in the state. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won all the 29 Lok Sabha seats in Madhya Pradesh, including Chhindwara, the home turf Kamal Nath.
