Congress CWC Meeting Focuses on Youth Issues, Ram Temple Donations, and Education ReformsPreviousNext

At the Congress Working Committee meeting, party president Mallikarjun Kharge criticized the Modi government for rising education costs, school closures, exam irregularities, and youth unemployment. The Congress resolved to expand its 'Chhatron Ki Goonj' campaign to 800 cities, focusing on student issues and alleged misappropriation of Ram temple donations. The party also raised concerns about Chinese incursions and demanded a Prime Ministerial apology over a caste-related incident involving Kharge. Chief ministers were tasked with preparing education reform roadmaps ahead of upcoming state elections.
