Selja: Weak Organizational Structure in Haryana Led to Defeat of Congress

The Haryana Story brings you the latest update on the Congress party's response to their recent electoral defeat in Haryana. Former Union Minister and Sirsa MP Kumari Selja shared insights into the party's current state of mind and future plans.

Speaking to the media, Selja acknowledged the disappointment among party workers but emphasized their resilience. "The workers are definitely disappointed by the loss, but they are not disheartened. Instead of worrying, the party is deeply reflecting on this matter," she told.

Selja highlighted that the reasons for the party's unexpected defeat are under review by the high command. A fact-finding committee has been tasked with gathering feedback from workers across the state to understand the factors that led to the loss.

One key issue Selja pointed out was the lack of a strong organizational structure at the state and block levels for the past 10-12 years. She stressed the importance of this structure, saying, "It's through the organization that the party functions and workers gain recognition." 

When asked about potential changes in the state organization, Selja deferred to the high command's authority. She also dismissed reports of internal conflicts leading to the defeat, including rumors of Rahul Gandhi's anger over the results.

Regarding concerns about EVMs, Selja mentioned that the party had raised issues with the Election Commission and was awaiting their response.

Despite the setback, Selja expressed confidence in the party's future. "Although the workers are disappointed with the loss, they will continue to work with renewed energy," she concluded.
