Hyderabad: Former Minister Mohammed Ali Shabbir has welcomed the proposed changes in the organization of Congress and hoped that they would help in party's revival at the grass root levels.
The senior Congress leader hoped that the meeting held by Congress president Sonia Gandhi with senior leaders in New Delhi on Saturday would bring a lot of required changes in the organisation and functioning of Congress party.
He said those changes would strengthen the party in Telangana State as it would boost the morale of Congress cadre at the grassroots level. Ali claimed that Congress was still the largest political party in Telangana with its members having a strong presence in almost every polling booth. However, he said that the cadre was upset and a bit demoralized due to a series of defeats the party suffered since 2014.
He also welcomed the suggestion that Rahul Gandhi be made the president of All India Congress Committee (AICC). He said that the entire Congress cadre wants Rahul Gandhi to lead the party as it believes that he has the potential to bring the party to power in next elections.
He said that the party leaders would get an opportunity to express their views in the proposed Chintan Baithak. He said a similar Chintan Baithak held in 2003 rejuvenated the party across the country which eventually resulted in Congress winning the 2004 elections.
