Veteran Congress Leader Advocates for Transforming Party into a Peoples Movement

Dhanuskodi Athithan, a veteran Congress leader and former Union Minister of State for Youth Affairs and Sports, has emphasized the importance of grassroots engagement for the partys revitalization. He advocates that the Congress party should focus on fieldwork and actively address the concerns of the community. Athithan highlighted the ongoing strength of the party in districts like Tirunelveli and Kanniyakumari, attributing this resilience to their proactive approach in tackling local issues.

Historically, the Congress party has had a significant presence in Tamil Nadu, and strengthening connections with the electorate could be crucial as they prepare for upcoming elections. Athithans call to action reflects a broader strategy aimed at re-establishing the partys influence by fostering direct relationships with constituents and addressing their needs.
