Good to see Congress focusing on NE states. Tripura and Meghalaya need strong opposition voices. Hope these new appointees can connect with local issues better than Delhi-based leaders. 🤞

Why always last minute appointments before elections? Congress needs consistent grassroots work, not just musical chairs of leaders. Odisha unit especially needs year-round attention!

Fishermen Congress in Tripura is interesting! Coastal issues matter but hope they also focus on tribal concerns in the interior areas. Northeast needs balanced development.

Social media focus in Meghalaya is smart - youth there are very active online. But will these leaders understand local Khasi/Garo sentiments? Names suggest they might! 👍

Congress keeps reshuffling same faces in new roles. Where are the young leaders? At least 50% appointments should be under 45 years if they want to attract new voters.

Hope the Ex-Servicemen Dept in Tripura actually works for veterans' welfare, not just becomes another political post. Our armed forces deserve better than token appointments.
