Congress convention in Mangaluru in November, says new DKDCC president Padmaraj R. Poojary

Stating that the Congress will be reorganised from the booth-level, the new president of Dakshina Kannada District Congress Committee (DKDCC) Padmaraj R. Poojary said here on Thursday that a massive convention of the party will be held in the city in the first week of November.

Speaking after taking charge in the party’s district office from outgoing president K. Harish Kumar, he said that he would personally visit the booths in every Assembly constituency in the next eight days.

Mr. Poojary said he would meet booth presidents and local workers directly, acknowledge their hard work, and stand in support of them. “The Congress is not merely a political force, it is a great movement that voices the aspirations of millions of ordinary people. The Congress embodies the hopes of the people,” he said.

“I will strive to restore the party’s past glory in Dakshina Kannada,” Mr. Poojary said.
