Congress to Contest UP Panchayat Polls Independently

The Congress party in Uttar Pradesh seems to be going it alone in the upcoming local elections, rather than teaming up with the Samajwadi Party.

They plan to concentrate on building their local groups and speaking out on issues that matter to people.

They've already picked new leaders for many areas and will have events to introduce them.

Another party, the Azad Samaj Party, is also getting ready to compete in the elections.
