All India Congress Committee (AICC) general secretary Tariq Anwar, who is in charge of Kerala, has said party workers nominated to Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) positions are required to face organisational polls if they hope to hold on to their posts.
Speaking to journalists after a leadership conclave at Indira Bhavan here on Saturday, Mr. Anwar said the poll process would commence in April. Congress membership in Kerala would touch 50 lakh soon.
Mr. Anwar appeared to dispel the speculation that the incumbent KPCC leadership was attempting to stack the decks in its favour ahead of the organisational elections by pressing on with the membership drive. "Membership drive would not impede the organisational elections," he said somewhat bluntly.
