To streamline the functioning of the Congress in Punjab and formulate an election strategy, Gulchain Singh Charak has convened a meeting of the newly constituted PPCC and other office-bearers at Chandigarh on Saturday.
Charak said office-bearers down to the block level had been invited so as to involve them in the process and also provide them an opportunity to highlight their concerns.
The PPCC chief, Capt Amarinder Singh, Leader of the Opposition in the Assembly Rajinder Kaur Bhattal and Jagmeet Brar would be among those participating in the meeting.
He said the purpose of the meeting was to set up committees, from the booth to the state level, well before the assembly elections so that party activists had enough time to explain the policies and programmes of the Congress to the people. Charak would thereafter visit all district headquarters to meet the activists.
Charak said he had asked Amarinder Singh and other senior office-bearers to be more accessible to the people and party— men.They had been asked to be available at least twice a week at the party headquarters in Chandigarh. He said specific duties would be asigned to the office-bearers and a review held by him every month.
The partymen had been warned against washing their dirty linen in public, he added.
