Jul 29, 2024
New Delhi [India], July 29 : Congress leader Isha Khan Choudhary, in his meeting with Congress General Secretary KC Venugopal on Monday, said that discussions were done on how to strengthen the Congress party in West Bengal.
Speaking to ANI, Choudhary, who is also the only Congress Lok Sabha MP from West Bengal, said,"We had a meeting about how to strengthen our party in West Bengal. We asked for suggestions from everyone. We discussed what more we can do in West Bengal."
On being asked about any major changes in the party's leadership in the TMC-ruled state, Choudhary said that it was the decision of the high command.
"It will be decided by the high command. The main reason for the meeting is for the strengthening of the organisation in West Bengal," he said.
Currently, Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury is the President of Congress in West Bengal and it is speculative that there might be changes in the role after he lost the Baharampur constituency in Lok Sabha 2024.
Isha Khan Chowdhury is the only Congress Lok Sabha MP from West Bengal who won from the Malda-South constituency this year.
