Cong bans welcome progs of leaders in districts, blocks

Raipur, June 26, 2013

Union minister of state and acting PCC president Charandas Mahant has prohibited welcome programmes of party leaders in district and blocks. 

PCC general secretary Subhash Sharma on Wednesday sent a circular in this regard to al the district and block heads. In the circular he wrote not to organise welcome programmes (garlanding, hiring of bands and bursting crackers, etc) for party leaders and office-bearers. 

Besides, he asked the DCC and BCC presidents to put images of all the leaders and workers who lost their lives during naxal attack on Congress parivartan yatra convoy at Jiram valley in Darbha region on May 25, 2013.

Sources say the party is in no mood of wasting time on the name of welcome programmes during its forthcoming events and wants to concentrate in cashing in on May 25-incident through yatras and campaigns. 

The circular is also said to be a broader message to the partymen to avoid celebrating small moments and gear up to take more significant challenge of defeating ruling BJP in upcoming Vidhan Sabha elections.
