Lucknow: Uttar Pradesh, the country's most important political state, where the Congress has been out of power for decades. Despite many efforts, the Congress could not increase its base there. The Congress has changed the face of the party in UP after the defeat in the last Lok Sabha election. Cine star-turned-state president Raj Babbar has been replaced by state OBC leader Ajay Kumar Lallu. At the same time, leaving the temptation of the Congressmen who have been appointed in the state team, 'useful' workers from new or other parties have been given place.

With a lot of love for the backward, along with ethnic balance, Congress has set the path of expectations. Keeping an eye on the next assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh, Congress has prepared 'Team UP' after a long discussion. In the race for the state president, former MP Pramod Tiwari, former minister Jitin Prasad, RPN Singh were also named, but for some time, Congress Legislature Party leader Ajay Kumar Lallu was among the most discussed among the trustees of National General Secretary Priyanka Vadra. The interim president of the party, Sonia Gandhi, also finally relied on Lallu. Lallu is from a backward caste.

The UP Congress Committee has specifically adopted the caste-inclusive formula. The committee has balanced participation of upper castes, backward, Dalits and Muslims. The team of 12 general secretaries shows a clear picture of this. The Congress, which has been entrusting responsibilities only to loyal workers, has changed its mind this time. Along with the youth, the party has given the responsibility of the organization to the workers who have come from other parties. Among the four vice presidents, Virender Chaudhary came from BSP while Deepak Kumar was a minister in SP. Among the general secretaries, Rakesh Sachan has left SP and Kaiser has come from SP, where Ansari and Shahnawaz Alam have been made secretaries. Priyanka Gandhi is considered to be an important role in the formation of this committee. Priyanka Gandhi is very active in UP these days.
