The Hindu
Over 1,000 new members inducted into the organisation
People from all walks of life are joining the Congress and strengthening the organisation, Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president K. Sudhakaran has said.
Speaking at a meeting convened here on Sunday to welcome those who joined the party from other organisations, Mr. Sudhakaran said the people of India wanted the Congress to lead the country. Opposition parties too are of the view that the Congress should lead the nation. On some party leaders in Kerala leaving the organisation, Mr. Sudhakaran said thousands would join the party in their place.
He blamed the Centre for selling off national assets, including banks, public sector companies, and ordnance factories. The Congress will oppose the move, he said.
