Trinamool Congress is expanding its base in Rajasthan and forming district committees and appointing office bearers in the state in this regard to contest assembly elections due later this year.
"We have formed district committees in many of the districts and appointed office bearers during the last few months. Our workers are collecting political feedback in different constituencies," Vijoy Saraswat, Rajasthan Pradesh Trinamool Congress President, told reporters here today.
"The party is getting positive feedback on the basis of which we would field our candidates in upcoming elections," he said after local leader of Shekhawati region, Babu Lal Khanda, and his supporters joined the party.
Saraswat said the party has appointed district presidents in several districts and appointments in the remaining areas will take place soon.
He criticised Congress and BJP saying the ruling party "could not deliver good governance" and the primary opposition party "failed to perform its duty."
"Issues like corruption and inflation have crippled life of the common man and deteriorating value of rupee has come as a drawback for the economy. All such issues will be raised during upcoming elections effectively," he said.
