The Congress on Thursday, 26 April, appointed senior leader Kamal Nath as president of its Madhya Pradesh unit and Jyotiraditya Scindia as campaign committee chief ahead of elections in the state expected later in 2018, said a statement from the party.

The party also appointed Girish Chodankar as the Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) chief for Goa, replacing Shantaram Naik following his resignation.

The party also appointed four working presidents – Bala Bachhan, Ramnivas Rawat, Jitu Patwari and Surender Chaudhary – in the Madhya Pradesh state unit.

The appointments come a few months before the state Assembly elections, where the Congress is seeking to wrest power from the BJP.

The chief ministerial candidate has not yet been decided as the choice still seems open with both Kamal Nath and Scindia in the race, a party leader said.
