Former MP Ashok Tanwar has officially rejoined the Congress Party, marking his return after five years. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi welcomed him into the party during a rally in Mahindergarh today.
Tanwar’s political journey has included stints with both the Aam Aadmi Party and the BJP, but he has now decided to return to Congress. During the induction ceremony, prominent Congress leader Bhupinder Hooda was also present on stage. Tanwar acknowledged Hooda from a distance, signaling a reconciliatory spirit.
Following his induction, Ashok Tanwar expressed his commitment to strengthening the party. He stated that he aims to work diligently for Congress and contribute to its efforts in the upcoming elections. His return is seen as a strategic move to bolster the party’s presence in the region, especially as Congress seeks to regain ground in Haryana. With experienced leaders like Tanwar back in the fold, the party hopes to enhance its influence and voter base in the state.
