Congress Chintan Shivir: Party's connection with people 'broken', admits Rahul Gandhi

Acknowledging that the Congress' connection with people has been “broken”, Rahul Gandhi announced on Sunday that the party will undertake a yatra in October to re-establish and strengthen it. He also laid emphasis on the "one family, one ticket" rule to ensure that multiple members of one family do not contest polls without working for the party. The Congress on Sunday adopted a 'Nav Sankalp' -- a road map for wide-ranging reforms in the party organisation to make it battle-ready for the next round of assembly and Lok Sabha polls. The party has adopted the ‘one-family, one ticket' formula with the rider that another family member seeking to contest elections should have worked in the party in an exemplary manner for at least five years.
