Congress Names District Chiefs in 11 Himachal Districts After 13-Month Gap

Mallikarjun Kharge cleared the picks following district-level reviews under the Sangathan Srijan Abhiyan.

Overview

  • AICC observers conducted district-wise assessments and submitted reports, followed by one-to-one consultations with observers and senior leaders before finalisation.
  • Women will lead two units with Champa Thakur in Mandi and Anjana Dhiman in Bilaspur, with Dhiman reinstated to the post.
  • Presidents remain to be named for Shimla Rural and Kinnaur, where multiple contenders are under consideration.
  • The move comes more than 13 months after the Congress dissolved its Pradesh, district and block units in Himachal Pradesh.
  • Party figures say the new district heads are expected to re-energise workers down to the booth level and lift a demoralised cadre.
