“Today’s meeting laid emphasis on strengthening the party at the district level. There was a detailed discussion about strengthening around 800 District Congress Committees across the country,” he said.

Jairam Ramesh disclosed that the meeting also discussed in detail the systematic weakening of the Election Commission of India by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Sha.

He said the meeting also discussed the issue of manipulation in electoral rolls where a large number of bogus votes were added and genuine votes deleted as happened in Haryana, Maharashtra and Delhi.

The Congress General Secretary further added that the meeting observed that it was the duty of the Election Commission of India to provide voter lists to the political parties in a format in which these can be analysed in detail.

He said that the Election Commission was functioning on the directions of the Prime Minister and the Union Home Minister.

He said as a follow-up to the Belagavi Resolution passed on December 26, a one-year ‘Samvidaan Bachao Rahstriya Yatra’ (Save the Constitution National March) will be carried out across the country.

Jairam Ramesh further added that it will be different from the Bharat Jodo Yatra and will be like a “relay yatra” in which national leaders will participate at the state, district and block levels.

He also announced that the next session of the AICC will be held in Gujarat in the first fortnight of April this year.
