The Congress party, gearing up for the upcoming 2027 assembly elections, has made significant organizational changes in the Gautam Buddha Nagar district. On Friday, the party appointed new presidents for four blocks in the district, paying special attention to social balance and caste equations. Through this strategic move, the Congress aims to once again strengthen its traditional vote bank.
The list announced by the party includes three leaders from the Other Backward Classes (OBC) category and one from the Dalit community. This appointment is considered part of the Congress's well-thought-out plan, which aims to strengthen the organization again by focusing on social justice and activating grassroots workers.
Who Got the Responsibility
Congress state president Ajay Rai formally approved these appointments and issued the appointment letters. The names and communities of the four leaders who have been made block presidents are as follows:
• Bisrakh Block President – Vijay Nagar (Gujjar community)
• Jewar Block President – Subedar Satpal Singh (Jat community)
• Dankaur Block President – Anit Bhati (Gujjar community)
• Dadri Block President – Tirth Ram Valmiki (Dalit community)
District Congress President Deepak Bhati Chotiwala provided information about these appointments. He said that the district unit had sent the proposal of these names, which the state leadership approved and implemented.
Strategy to Balance Caste Equations
Political analysts believe that the Congress, through these appointments, has tried to appease the major caste groups in the district—Gujjar, Jat, and Valmiki. These communities have had a significant influence on the politics of Gautam Buddha Nagar. In this context, this step by the Congress is clearly seen as a move towards strengthening its social base in the upcoming elections.
According to experts, this change is not just at the organizational level but also an attempt to strengthen the roots of the Congress again through social representation. The party's focus is now on increasing activity at the grassroots level and accelerating election preparations by addressing regional equations.
A Picture of Unity Will Be Seen
The oath-taking ceremony of the newly appointed block presidents and other office bearers will be held on Saturday at the NEA auditorium in Noida. Senior Congress leaders, district-level officials, and workers will be present in large numbers at this event. It is believed that this event will infuse new energy among Congress workers and also send a message of organizational unity.
Congress's Preparation for 2027
Overall, this organizational reshuffle by the Congress has been done keeping in mind the 2027 assembly elections. The party leadership believes that if grassroots workers are activated along with social balance, the Congress can make a b comeback in the district. With the help of this formula of caste representation, the party has started preparing the political ground afresh.
