"The Congress party is working to strengthen the party at the grassroots under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi, and the 'Nav Srijan' campaign is not only to strengthen the party organisation but also to make the Congress party a 'public movement' again. It's to reawaken the soul of the Congress party," he said. Sajjan Verma, while expressing gratitude towards Rahul Gandhi for his unwavering insistence on a caste census, said that the BJP and the Prime Minister initially castigated him for the demand, but ultimately they came around to accepting it. "The caste census is a victory for the deprived sections of society, who are still waiting for social, economic, and political justice," he said. Mukesh Nayak said that this campaign will create 'catalytic groups' who, at the grassroots, will work to counter the 'deceptive and misleading' propaganda of the BJP.
