Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Wednesday (March 5, 2025) constituted a new department of the All India Congress Committee (AICC) to oversee the party’s assets and properties across the country, and appointed Vijay Inder Singla as the AICC in-charge of the department with immediate effect.
Mr. Singla is also the joint treasurer of the Congress, along with senior party leader Ajay Maken.
In a statement, Congress general secretary (organisation) K.C. Venugopal said Mr. Singla, a former Punjab Minister and also a former Lok Sabha member from Sangrur, would continue as the joint treasurer.
Mr. Kharge, during the inauguration of the new party headquarters at Indira Bhawan in January, had urged party leaders to take legal recourse to get back properties that were in the possession of the Congress when the first split took place.
