In its bid to include youths in its fold, Odisha Pradesh Congress Committee (OPCC) has opened a social media department to train at least 50 youths from each district to write blogs for the party.

"AICC vice-president Rahul Gandhi has sought daily progress report of this newly-formed department," Hariprasad said.
The team of the OPCC would link the urban and rural populations through the social media sites like Facebook, Twitter and Linkdin.
