Imphal, August 28 2021: With the forthcoming state assembly election approaching fast, Manipur Pradesh Congress Committee (MPCC) conducted meeting of its recently constituted election campaign committee and manifesto committee on Saturday.

Sources said that AICC election observer of Manipur Jairam Ramesh, AICC Manipur in-charge Bhakta Charan Das and research department secretary Ranajit Mukherjee attended the meeting of election campaign committee, which discussed strategies of campaign, public issues in the state and selection of campaigners.

The AICC leaders took suggestions and opinions from the members and the meeting resolved to kick off poll campaign within a short notice.

Later, in the afternoon, the three AICC leaders attended a meeting of the party's election manifesto committee.

The meeting mainly focused on economy, development, public welfare, infrastructure development, and other issues and topics relevant with all the communities of the state, sources added.

Later in the days, Patsoi Block Congress Committee accorded warm welcome to Jairam Ramesh at its Tabungkhok office.

Patsoi MLA Ak Mirabai and Block president L Kumar led in welcoming Jairam by presenting simple gifts.

During the ceremony, Jairam praised Mirabai as a strong and brave lady and noted that her roles for the party are being reflected by the love of the people.

Directing his tirade against BJP governments both at the centre and in the state, Jairam contended that the BJP-led NDA government is not only destroying the economy of the country but also randomly hiking prices of essential items without consideration of its implication on the poor people.

As the government is only doing lip service, the number of people suffering increases every day, he maintained, while urging the people to change such government and bring back the Congress government in the state.
