Engaging youth should be party’s priority: Rahul
The HinduThe Congress must not leave the task of engaging youth to its student wings, the Youth Congress and the National Students’ Union of India, alone, Rahul Gandhi told party functionaries at his first meeting with them on Wednesday after he took over as vice-president three days ago: it is something that must be the priority of the main party, he stressed. “… the Congress recognises there is a new aspiration for advancement among the people, especially among the youth and the middle class,” the section on Political Challenges in the Jaipur Declaration said. “The Congress pledges to speak for both the young middle class India and the young deprived India.” The party, it continued, “will be responsive to the new aspirations of the youth and will offer credible policies and programmes, especially job creating programmes.” On Wednesday evening, in an informal interaction with the Congress’ central office-bearers, members of the organising committee for the Jaipur chintan shivir, and Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit, Mr. Gandhi stressed that in the coming days he hoped to have discussions with each of them, individually, or in groups, party sources said. Mr. Gandhi also wanted to know what feedback they had got from the chintan shivir: to this, both Union Health Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad and Ms. Dikshit stressed the need to take the recommendations of the Jaipur Declaration forward.
