Congress Launches National Talent Hunt in Assam
The Congress party has started a special program called 'National Talent Hunt' in Assam.
They want to find new people to speak for the party and highlight important issues.
This program is happening all over India.
They are dedicating the Assam launch to a famous singer, Zubeen Garg, because they believe his message of unity is similar to what their leader Rahul Gandhi believes.

They want to find talented people from all walks of life to represent the party.
People can apply until December 2, and then there will be interviews and selections.
