Chennai Despite the Congress party facing reversal in the elections in Kerala, West Bengal, Assam and Union Territory of Puducherry, the 18 seats it won in Tamil Nadu has given rise to hope for the party national leadership.
The All India Congress Committee was really happy over the performance of the Tamil Nadu state unit with the party bagging 18 seats out of the 25 it contested in alliance with the DMK in the 2021 assembly elections, the party said.
AICC general secretary, organization, KC Venugopal said, "The Congress has staged a good performance in Tamil Nadu and it has won 18 of the 25 seats it contested in alliance with the DMK. Initially we were expecting 50 seats to contest but we were satisfied with what we got and put down our heads and worked among the people and this gave us positive results."
