The newly appointed President of the Bihar Pradesh Congress Committee (BPCC), Rajesh Kumar, expressed gratitude to the top leadership for entrusting him with this responsibility and said his primary goal is to strengthen the party, engage with the public, and ensure transparency in all work.
In his first statement following the appointment, Rajesh Kumar expressed his gratitude towards the party's top leadership, including Rahul Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge, and KC Venugopal. "I want to thank my party's top leadership for giving me the opportunity, as a person from the Dalit community, to serve in this position," Kumar said, acknowledging the trust placed in him. Kumar outlined the challenges ahead, recognising the party's strong structure and emphasised the need for refinement. He noted the urgency of his task and said, "The challenge in front of me is to complete multiple works in a short time while ensuring that the party moves forward and issues of public interest are discussed in the House." He highlighted that Rahul Gandhi's ideology, which focuses on saving the Constitution and uplifting minorities, has been brought to the forefront through various initiatives. "In Odisha, Bhakta Charan Das from the Dalit community was made the state president; in Bihar, Rajesh Kumar from the Dalit community was made the state Congress chief; and in Telangana, Muslim reservation was increased. This is Rahul Gandhi's initiative, and it is being brought to reality by allies with RJD in Bihar," said Kumar. He reaffirmed that these efforts reflect Rahul Gandhi's commitment to action, stating, "Whatever promises Rahul Gandhi made, we are working to implement them, especially in our alliance with RJD in Bihar." "My work is to strengthen the party, we want to go to the public and speak over the issues. My primary goal is to keep all the work in a transparent manner. I ensure that all the work will be done," he said. When asked about the Congress's strategy for the upcoming assembly elections, Kumar emphasised the importance of improving the party's vote share, aiming to increase it from 24 per cent to 25 per cent. He stated that the party would focus on gaining the support of marginalized communities such as ST, SC, and OBC voters. "My primary goal is to strengthen the party, engage with the public, and ensure transparency in all our work," Kumar said, promising to deliver on his commitments with accountability and clarity.
