Patel was addressing party workers at a two-day training workshop for Vistaraks (field organisers) from the Kashi and Gorakh regions, which concluded in Varanasi on Thursday.

He emphasised that while a strong electoral strategy is essential, its implementation on the ground is equally critical. Key pillars for this success include strong coordination, clearly defined responsibilities for workers, and sustained public outreach.

Describing the “booth” as the organisation’s most vital unit, Patel highlighted the need for active committees, regular meetings and genuine voter engagement. He noted that robust public support cannot be built without addressing the challenges and feedback of every segment of society.

Patel further urged party workers to counter the opposition’s misinformation with facts. He also called for strengthening the party’s core voter base while simultaneously expanding outreach to new social groups, a strategy he identified as crucial for upcoming assembly election preparations.
