Jammu, Nov. 14 :— The President of the Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC), Tariq Hameed Karra, today chaired an important meeting of the frontal organisations of the Congress Party. The meeting focused on enhancing the grassroots strength of these organisations, which are critical in raising awareness and mobilising support across various communities, castes, and sections of society. During the meeting, leaders from various Congress cells presented valuable suggestions aimed at fortifying the party’s outreach. These frontal organisations play a pivotal role in educating and informing the public about the policies and vision of the Congress Party, particularly in challenging the misinformation campaigns being propagated by rival political parties especially BJP.
Karra emphasised the importance of fostering a deep commitment and conviction to the Congress ideology in order to effectively counter the BJP’s misleading and divisive narratives. He highlighted that the BJP, as a well-oiled machine of false propaganda, poses a significant challenge, but with a collective and scientific approach, the Congress Party can reach out to the masses and offer a truthful, inclusive alternative. After attentively listening to the suggestions from the Chairpersons of all cells, Karra shared strategic insights on how the party can utilise modern tools and methodologies to counter BJP’s falsehoods and strengthen its presence at the grassroots level.
As the meeting concluded, Karra reminded everyone that tomorrow marks the birth anniversary of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, celebrated across the nation as Children’s Day. He underscored that the Congress Party has always upheld Nehru’s ideals and principles, which form the very foundation of our democracy. Karra pointed out that forces aligned with the BJP are constantly working to dismantle Nehruvian ideals and undermine the inclusive, secular vision that Nehru stood for. “It is our responsibility,” Karra stated, “to resist these regressive efforts and to keep Nehru’s vision alive, not only as a tribute to his legacy but for the future of our democracy itself.” He affirmed that protecting these principles, which Nehru dedicated his life to, is a duty the Congress Party proudly upholds. The meeting was a productive exchange of ideas and reaffirmed the commitment of Congress to fight misinformation, strengthen its base, and work tirelessly for the betterment of the people.
