NEW DELHI, Oct 27: As Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge completed one year in office, the party said it has made “significant progress” under his leadership and he has been instrumental in revitalising the organisational structure.
Kharge was elected as the Congress president last October after defeating Shashi Tharoor in the party’s internal polls for the top post. He had officially taken over as the Congress president on October 26, 2022.
“Mallikarjun Kharge: Congress President Committed To People’s Good. Shri Kharge embodies the virtues of the Indian National Congress – Virtues of democracy, social justice, secularism, inclusive growth and patriotism,” the Congress said in a post on X on Thursday.
“Having risen through the ranks, he is an ideal example of what passion and persistence can achieve,” it said.
From a humble position of a block-level leader to becoming the party’s elected president, his journey studded with 55 years of electoral success is a testament to his hard work, dedication and commitment to the cause of democracy, the Congress said.
“He (Kharge) is a fearless leader who fights for and defends the ideals he believes in. He also champions the rights of the poor and marginalised,” the party said.
“Under his leadership, the party has made significant progress. He has also been instrumental in revitalising the party’s organisational structure and outreach to the people,” the Congress said.
It asserted that Kharge is a visionary leader who is committed to building a better future for India. (PTI)
