The Gujarat Congress will give ‘priority’ to women and youth in the ticket distribution for the upcoming state assembly elections.
“During a joint meeting Monday, it was a common suggestion by everyone that youth, new faces and women should be given priority wherever possible. This is happening at a big level in the party as everyone is clear that new faces should be given a chance in the distribution of tickets in Gujarat polls,” said Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee (GPCC) spokesperson Manish Doshi.
During Monday’s meeting that went on for more than three hours, modalities, methods and criteria, lessons learned last time and the overall state scenario were discussed. The Congress is expected to announce its first candidate list by the month-end.
