Congressige Banni Badalavane Tanni (Join the Congress, bring about change). This will be the slogan state Congress leaders will have repeating again and again as they gear up to relaunch Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president Dr G. Parameshwar's favourite programme to gear up the party cadre ahead of the 2013 assembly elections. After carefully weighing the options, the AICC leaders gave their nod to Dr Parameshwar to relaunch the programme in September in every nook and corner of the state. Congress leaders are hoping that the programme to lure people to the party, will have a unifying effect and help end differences between rival factions.
At a meeting of prominent leaders at the AICC headquarters in New Delhi on Wednesday, it was decided to hammer out differences and relaunch Dr Parameshwar's programme with a few modifications. The campaign will focus on highlighting the failures of the ruling BJP in the state.
