A central organizing panel of 13 members from the group’s member parties became public by the opposition coalition INDIA, which will host its third gathering in Mumbai.

Congress president blasts BJP

In a speech earlier that day, Mallikarjun Kharge, the national president of the Congress, accused the BJP-led central government of “playing vendetta politics” and attacked them. He claimed that as the INDIA bloc gains support, the government will increasingly abuse its agencies to target Opposition leaders.

Structuring a united front

The opposition bloc’s formal structure became finalized, and a campaign strategy emerged at the alliance’s third meeting. Later on Friday, the opposition leaders probably released a joint statement.

Campaigning strategy

At least four subgroups of the alliance will emerge, each with distinct roles. A group will be in charge of the alliance’s shared agenda, another of the action plan and handling social media, and a third of research and data analysis. An additional subcommittee might involve developing to plan joint campaigns and rallies.
