Kochi: All those who accept the leadership of congress president Sonia Gandhi will be welcomed into the Congress party, M M Hassan, Kerala PCC Spokesman and former state minister said here today (Mar 06 2006).

Addressing a press meet, he said "Our political resolution is clear. Those who left the party, we are inviting all leaders and workers to return to the parent organisation."

He said the situation in the state was such that all those who had left the party due to some misunderstanding should return to the congress. The UDF should be strengthened and "the communist misrule should not be allowed to come back in the state," he said.

UDF's chances in the coming assembly polls were very good, he said adding "to increase the winning chances, we will chalk out many programmes."

The Congress-led UDF government had the satisfaction of undertaking many developmental works in the state, he said.
