Congress Leaders in Uttarakhand Must Choose Between Office and Ballot

During a strategic meeting at Dehradun’s Bijapur State Guest House, Selja emphasized that the mandate of a party president transcends individual electoral aspirations. She argued that these leaders hold a broader responsibility to fortify the organization across all Assembly segments within their jurisdictions, rather than focusing solely on their own constituencies.

The directive followed a performance review of the party’s organizational restructuring efforts over the last six months. Accompanied by senior leader Vamshi Reddy and election committee coordinator Chilla Vamshi Chandra Reddy, Selja scrutinized three-month roadmaps submitted by local office-bearers. Beyond the resignation requirement, she tasked leadership with intensifying agitation against BJP policies and ensuring booth-level ideological penetration. With the current Assembly term expiring in March 2027, Selja also issued a stern warning to the party's various frontal and affiliated units, demanding more proactive engagement to avoid further organizational stagnation.
