AICC general secretary Digvijay Singh on Saturday morning met late party leader Vidya Charan Shukla’s daughter Pratibha Pandey at her Labhandi-based residence Radheshyam Bhawan and reportedly gave her political tips.
Though accompanied by PCC president Charandas Mahant and CLP leader Ravindra Choubey, Singh held one-to-one talk with Pandey for about 15-20. The meeting is said to be significant for both party and Pandey who decided to carry forward her father’s political legacy by joining politics. Later, Mahant and Choubey joined the duo and discussed over party’s state politics.
Notably, Pandey had recently met Mahant at Congress Bhawan and recommended some of Shukla’s staunch supporters as potential poll candidates. She also expressed her opinion over list of names received by the party from Mahasamund.
Singh also visited Shukla’s nephew and MLA Amitesh’s residence at Khamhardih on latter’s request and held talks to him and his mother Padmini Shukla.
