New Delhi: Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi
on Friday suggested a performance-based "reward and punishment
system" in Congress to tone up functioning of the organisation ahead of
the Lok Sabha polls.
At an interaction with PCC chiefs and CLP leaders here,
Rahul Gandhi said that there is a need for "fixing some definite criteria
for ticket distribution". Rahul Gandhi said that four to five criteria
should be fixed to decide eligibility of a candidate for giving them tickets
during elections. The Congress leader urged the leaders to shun groupism and make earnest
efforts to connect with the people.
"Rahul Gandhi said that both reward and punishment will
follow. Those working seriously should be rewarded. Tasks will also be given.
He said you set three four commitments for yourselves and I will see after some
time whether you have fulfilled them or not," a state leader, who attended
the meeting, said.
Rahul Gandhi also told the state leaders that they should
not work only from election point of view but also aim to strengthen the
organisation. He said this while intervening during an interaction with the PCC
chiefs and CLP leaders, which saw a total of 32 leaders expressing their views
on the first day of the two-day exercise. "Everybody must realise his
weaknesses and accept that. We can progress only then," he said during the
interaction, which also involved issues like that of alliances in states, early
resolution of Telangana row, how to cope
with regional parties and strategy to counter Narendra Modi's media
campaign.
Rahul Gandhi said that if the party workers are vocal, then
there will be not much need to counter such campaign on television or media.
