In a strategic move gearing up for the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the Congress party has announced the formation of cluster-wise screening committees to shortlist candidates. AICC General Secretaries/in-charges, PCC Presidents, CLP leaders, and AICC secretaries in-charge of the state/UT will serve as ex-officio members, ensuring a comprehensive and inclusive selection process.
The party has divided the nation into five clusters, each headed by a chairman and consisting of key members to oversee the candidate shortlisting process. Here is an overview of the clusters and their respective leaders:
Cluster 1:

This meticulous division reflects the party’s commitment to a thorough and region-specific candidate selection process, acknowledging the diverse political landscapes across the country.
In a parallel development, the Congress party held its inaugural meeting to draft the manifesto for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. This proactive step demonstrates the party’s dedication to presenting a clear and comprehensive agenda to the voters.
Furthermore, in a bid to strengthen its organizational structure, Congress has appointed Alka Lamba as the All India Mahila Congress President, underscoring the party’s focus on women’s representation and empowerment.
With these strategic moves, Congress is positioning itself for a competitive and well-prepared campaign for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. The announcement of screening committees and manifesto drafting marks the beginning of an intensive phase as political parties gear up for the electoral battle ahead.
