highlights
- Three member committee visited all parts of Gujarat
- After visiting all the zones, the committee prepared a comprehensive report
- According to the findings of the report, change in the organization is possible in the state.
- The major reason for the defeat has been attributed to the lack of coordination in the party.
lack of party coordination
According to the information received from the sources, lack of coordination in the report has been considered as the biggest reason for the defeat. Due to lack of better coordination between Congress and Gujarat Congress, Congress lost badly in 2022 assembly elections and the party came down from 77 to 17 straight away. Because of which he had to lose the post of Leader of the Opposition. The report to be submitted to AICC was badly affected by the lack of coordination between the central leadership and the state leadership. Due to this the party contested the elections but could not create any moments. On one side of the party, there was no coordination between the central team and the state, so the situation remained the same between the state team and the district teams. This party completely faltered. The candidates of the party were left alone on many fronts. The committee has drawn all these conclusions after several phase-wise field visits.

Jagdish Thakor is currently the president of the Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee.
damage control not done The party did not chalk out any strategy to make up for the losses incurred during the elections. The party has been suffering losses and the leaders kept saying that those who want to go should go. Due to this many leaders left the party. This weakened the image of Congress in the general public. Even more damage was done. Responsible leaders did not show interest in controlling the damage. Apart from this, whatever other things the Fact Finding Committee has found important. They include lack of manpower and funds. Candidates could not get adequate facilities while contesting elections in front of BJP. Due to this the candidates lagged behind in the election campaign. The candidates did not receive funds from the party. In its absence, his election campaign was affected and he could not campaign on time. Congress got only 17 seats. This is the worst performance of Congress in the state. All the big leaders were defeated in the elections. Only Ganiben Thakor could win as a female candidate.
