Overview

  • In Rajasthan, the party appointed 45 District Congress Committee presidents, naming 12 sitting MLAs and five former legislators, with five districts still pending due to the Anta bypoll and factional disputes.
  • The Rajasthan slate includes seven women and reflects reported social balancing across categories: eight General, nine SC, eight ST, sixteen OBC and four Minority representatives.
  • In Telangana, the AICC released a new roster of district chiefs that includes five sitting MLAs and five women after a long selection process.
  • Selections were shaped by district-level observer reports and reviews by K.C. Venugopal with state leadership before receiving the Congress president’s approval.
  • In Himachal Pradesh, the AICC named 36 observers to gather ground feedback and recommend 12 district presidents, while the Telangana rollout prompted dissent, including at least one resignation and complaints over representation.
