JAMMU: Recalling from past that it was Congress especially former PM Rajiv Gandhi who brought IT technology and computerisation to the country, All India Congress Committee (AICC) coordinator departments and incharge digital membership K Raju on Tuesday said the then opposition laughed at him but today India is leader in the field.

All India Congress Committee (AICC) coordinator departments and incharge digital membership K Raju said this when he formally launched digital membership of the party in J&K on Tuesday and also addressed a day-long session of Chief Enrollers and enrollers for digital membership of the party.

”The present generations and youth of the country are taking advantage of Rajiv ji's efforts," he added.

Mr Raju explained the importance of digital membership to the party leaders including chief enrollers from all over province and said that INC membership is real on contact from person to person instead of miss call membership.

He asked the party leaders that Congress does not believe in exaggeration but in real and actual membership, because in the end it is genuine workers who work.

AICC PRO Ranjeet Ranjan said that the membership shall be followed by organisational elections at various levels in the party right from booth level. She asked the enrollers to stick to the timeline.

JK Congress chief G A Mir in his address said that the party has always believed in the strength of Congress workers at grass roots level who are the backbone of the party. He asked party workers to reach out to every voter and enroll them.
