Bhopal: The Congress state unit on Tuesday held a meeting on the "Save Constitution" campaign with its working committee and political affairs committee at the party office here.
The AICC has decided to hold the campaign across the country from April 25 to 30. In Madhya Pradesh, the campaign will take-off from April 28, and a rally will take place in Gwalior.
Party state in-charge Harish Chaudhary and state president Jitu Patwari were present along with other senior Congress functionaries during the meeting on Tuesday. Following the guidelines of the party after the recent CWC (

) meeting in Ahmedabad, the state unit installed a poster that said, "Jai Bapu-Jai Bham-Jai Samvidhan".
Also, in the convention hall at the state party headquarters, no chairs were kept on the dais. Senior functionaries sat on the dais and homage was paid to party patriarchs with "sutt ki mala (garlands made of threads)".

All the senior functionaries, executive members and district presidents of the Congress organization participated in the meeting. Strategic discussions were held on strengthening the organization, giving priority to people's problems, and upcoming movements and campaigns of the party.
The focus, however, was on the upcoming
Save Constitution campaign
. It was decided that a "Constitution Bachao" rally will be organised in Madhya Pradesh from April 28 with a rally in Gwalior. Thereafter, the campaign will spread across the state in three more phases.
Chaudhary said, "This campaign will prove to be decisive in stopping the attacks on the Constitution and making the public aware of their rights."
Patwari said, "Every worker should consider this movement as his responsibility and take the message of the Constitution to every village, every ward."
This campaign will prove to be an important initiative in the direction of giving new energy to the organization, boosting the morale of the workers and strengthening public relations at the grassroots level, Patwari argued.
The first phase of the Samvidhan Bachao campaign will be held at the district levels from May 3 to May 10. Rallies will be organized by all district Congress committees in coordination with the state Congress headquarters.
"In these rallies, the anti-people policies of the Modi govt, rising unemployment, inflation, agricultural crisis, poor condition of rural economy will be highlighted. Participation of youth, farmers, working class and Dalit communities will be ensured," a state party release said.
Second phase of the campaign will be held from May 11 to 17 when the party will take people's issues to the state assembly segments. Congress MLAs, former people's representatives, office-bearers and social workers will create public awareness in every assembly constituency. Misuse of ED, CBI, and central agencies, disregard of constitutional institutions, attacks on the rights of women, Dalits and tribals will be highlighted, the state Congress office said.
In the final phase from May 20 to 30, the party plans to reach every house. Congress workers will go door-to-door and establish communication on issues like inflation, unemployment and violation of constitutional rights. Party will distribute campaign literature and dialogue will be strengthened through social media.
