Mahad (Maha): Youth Congress
office-bearers would henceforth be appointed not from Delhi,
but through organisational elections, AICC general secretary
Rahul Gandhi said here on Saturday.
Rahul was addressing meetings with youth and Congress
workers -- which saw participation of women in large numbers
-- during the last leg of his three-day visit to Maharashtra.
"Earlier Youth Congress was taken for granted and its
chief used to be appointed from Delhi. Henceforth, such a
thing will not happen," he said.
The Congress leader later left for Satara in western
Maharashtra where he is scheduled to attend a convention of
nomadic tribes.
