The Sunday Mail
New Delhi. The Congress party has made changes to the state organization in Haryana. The party has appointed Rao Narendra Singh as state Congress president. Along with this, former Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda has been appointed the party’s leader of the opposition in the assembly.
Previously, the post of state Congress president was held by Udaybhan Singh, but now the party has entrusted this responsibility to Rao Narendra Singh. After 17 years, Congress has appointed a non-Dalit as party president. Rao Narendra Singh belongs to the OBC community. This time, Congress has established a coalition between Jats and OBCs. It took the high command almost a year to make this decision. It can be said that Hooda’s power remains intact. Other factions have lost their status.
Regarding the political career of the newly appointed state Congress president in Haryana, Rao Narendra Singh is a three-time MLA. He has also served as a minister in the Hooda government. Rao Narendra has won the assembly elections from Ateli in 1996, 2000 and Narnaur in 2009.
