Anantnag, Aug 14: Congress on Monday discussed the upcoming ULB and Panchayat elections while expressing confidence that the party will emerge stronger given its “pro-people” policies and the equal services rendered to every section of the people living in the country.
As per a statement issued here, District Congress Committee (DCC) Anantnag in a meeting held at Veerinag area of south Kashmir reviewed the preparations for the upcoming ULB and Panchayat elections urging the party cadres to reach out to people and seek their support to defeat the “fake narrative” of the BJP.
