Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge announced a five-member National Alliance Committee on December 19, just before the meeting of the INDIA bloc got underway. The panel includes party veterans Ashok Gehlot, Salman Khurshid, Bhupesh Baghel, Mukul Wasnik, and Mohan Prakash.
“In the run-up to the General Elections-2024, Hon’ble Congress President has constituted an National Alliance Committee…,”party general secretary (organisation) K.C. Venugopal said in a statement.
The timing of the announcement is significant as it came just before the meeting of the top leaders of the Indian National Developmental, Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) in the capital.
