NEW DELHI: The Congress on Wednesday mapped out its political strategy on a range of issues, including the Vande Mataram centenary celebrations, its ‘Chhatron ki Goonj’ campaign against paper leaks, the “chanda chori” controversy linked to the Ram Temple and the “shuddhikaran” row in Uttarakhand, at a key Congress Working Committee meeting.The meeting, chaired by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge at Indira Bhawan, brought together 88 leaders, including former party chiefs Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and several senior party leaders and chief ministers.<\/p>\n

The Congress decided to expand its ‘Chhatron ki Goonj’ campaign against paper leaks and issues concerning the education and examination system.Congress general secretary KC Venugopal said the campaign would see more gatherings across 800 cities, with Rahul Gandhi expected to lead some of them.The party also discussed the protests over alleged paper leaks and the government’s response to them. Kharge has asked Congress chief ministers to consult education experts and prepare a roadmap for overhauling the education and examination system.“We are focused on three-four issues. Number one is paper leaks. The agitation done by the people of the country and the way the government dealt with that agitation was discussed. The CWC noted that the Monsoon Session of Parliament was successful for the Opposition and the government was on the back foot,” Venugopal said.<\/p>\n

‘Chanda chori’ to be taken to villages, panchayats<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n

The Ram Temple donations controversy also featured prominently in the Congress’s strategy discussions.Venugopal said the party would take the “chanda chori” issue to the grassroots, with Pradesh Congress Committees directed to raise it at the village and panchayat levels.“‘Chanda Chori’ is a serious area of concern among people of this country. It is an issue associated with the sentiments of people. Those who used Ram Mandir for polarising people now stand exposed,” he said.<\/p>\n
