Months before the Lok Sabha elections, the Congress undertook a recent organizational reorganization that witnessed leader Avinash Pande take over as general secretary in charge of the state of Uttar Pradesh, replacing Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. This significant organizational restructuring occurred two days after the Congress Working Committee meeting.
The recently appointed general secretary of the Congress in Uttar Pradesh, taking to X, expressed gratitude for the chance to thank former Congress presidents Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi and party president Mallikarjun.
He wrote, "With boundless gratitude for the confidence placed in me by INC India President Kharge ji, Chairperson of Congress Parliamentary Party Sonia Gandhi ji, our leader Rahul Gandhi ji, and Congress General Secretary KC Venugopal ji, and with an unswerving resolve to honour that trust, I humbly accept the appointment as the General Secretary Incharge of Uttar Pradesh."
