Amidst differences among leaders on selection of candidates for Legislative Council and Rajya Sabha seats, the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee’s two-day Chintan Shivir will commence here on Thursday to draw a roadmap to tackle the current challenges and strengthen the organisation to face the next year’s State Legislative Assembly elections.
The Chintan Shivir, to be held at a resort on the outskirts of the city, is expected to review organisational capacity, and the current situation and challenges to confront the BJP in the coming elections to the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP), rural local bodies and finally the Assembly.
In tune with the Nav Sankalp Chintan Shivir of the party held in Udaipur last month, KPCC president D.K. Shivakumar has constituted six committees - Economic Affairs and Price Rise Committee, Social Justice and Empowerment Committee, Organisation Committee, Farmers and Agriculture Committee, Youth, Women, Education and Employment Committee, and Political Affairs and AICC Programme Implementation Committee.
