CWC meet to chart expansion of Rahul’s ‘Chhatron ki Goonj’
Rahul Gandhi's 'Chhatron ki Goonj' outreach program aims to engage students post-protests, focusing on education reforms and issues affecting youth.
The Congress Working Committee (CWC) is set to meet on Wednesday to devise a plan to broaden the reach of Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi's well-received initiative, 'Chhatron ki Goonj'. The programme, which began in Kota to engage with students, is slated for its next session in Pune. A senior party strategist revealed that the CWC meeting will also deliberate on the party's election preparations for Uttar Pradesh and Punjab.
The significance of expanding 'Chhatron ki Goonj' is emphasized, with leaders advocating for maintaining its momentum. The outreach programme is an interactive forum to discuss education reforms, employment and other concerns relevant to students. Since its inception on June 17, the programme has touched down in Kota, Dehradun, and Prayagraj, with a special edition for female students scheduled for Pune on August 22.
The initiative has garnered significant attention, with a dedicated portal attracting 2.5 million members across 28 cities. The programme's relevance intensifies in the context of student protests leading to significant political repercussions, including the resignation of the then Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan and revamping of the National Testing Agency (NTA).
