On the second day of his two-day visit, Gautam held separate meetings at the state Congress headquarters with the media department, social media cell, and Congress candidates for the 2022 assembly elections.

He urged the party’s position to be effectively communicated to the public with facts, and to provide factual responses to government policies and BJP claims. He urged social media officials to increase the party’s activism on digital media.

Addressing the 2022 assembly election candidates, Gautam said that the last election was fought under adverse circumstances, but now the situation is changing.

He appealed to party workers to remain active in their respective areas and work together to ensure the party’s victory, no matter who contests the elections.

During this, he targeted the BJP government on education, social and political issues and alleged that the current government has failed on various fronts.

Present in the meetings were several senior party leaders including State Congress President Ajay Rai, National Secretary Dheeraj Gurjar, Rajesh Tiwari, Satyanarayan Patel, Neelanshu Chaturvedi, Pradeep Narwal and Tauqeer Alam, former State President Brijlal Khabri, MLA Virendra Chaudhary and former MLA Louise Khurshid.
