Sulthan Bathery: Ahead of the assembly elections in the state, the Indian National Congress will hold a two-day state-level leadership conclave here from Sunday. All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Deepa Dasmunsi will inaugurate the conclave at 10 am.
A host of leaders, including state-level leaders, KPCC office bearers, MLAs, MPs, working committee members and members of key policy-making bodies, are expected to participate in the conclave. In the meeting, the leaders expect to draft an action plan and prepare a blueprint for the party’s campaign for the upcoming state Assembly elections.
According to Congress leaders who preferred anonymity, the discussions will focus on strategies to be developed to face the election, criteria for candidate selection, campaigns to be launched in the run-up to the polls, and the resolution of intra-party issues on a war footing.
Representing various streams within the party, as many as 168 delegates will participate in the conclave. AICC General Secretary KC Venugopal, Leader of the Opposition VD Satheesan, KPCC President Sunny Joseph, and senior leaders Ramesh Chennithala, Thiruvanchur Radhakrishnan, and V Muraleedharan are among those who are to lead the sessions.
A similar conclave was held in Wayanad in 2024, ahead of the 2025 local body polls, to strengthen the party. The conclave is scheduled to conclude on Monday evening.
