Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will visit Gujarat tomorrow to launch the party's "pilot project" of strengthening District Congress Committees (DCCs) in the state. He will be on a two-day visit to the state.

This is Rahul's third visit to the state. His visit comes after the recently concluded AICC session and the Congress Working Committee (CWC) meeting, the events which were held in the state on April 8 and April 9. Earlier, Rahul visited Gujarat in March. During that visit, he had criticised the party workers and emphasised the need to distinguish genuine ones from the compromised lot.

Rahul will hold an orientation programme for district observers at the Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee, Ahmedabad. The move is aimed to strengthen district units in Gujarat, where the party has become out of power for over three decades now.

The party insiders said Rahul would hold an orientation meeting with the AICC and PCC observers in Ahmedabad on Tuesday before they embark on the state-wide exercise of selecting the heads for the state’s district units.

On Wednesday, Rahul will address party workers at Modasa town in Arvalli district, where he will begin the project of selecting district unit chiefs. It is said a five-member committee, comprising one AICC observer and four state (PCC) observers, would oversee the process of appointing the new district unit chiefs for each of the 41 district units.
