The new initiative is designed for transparent candidate selection and ticket distribution. It will also make way for new talent to emerge as leaders in the party, said AICC General Secretary and in-charge of Odisha Dr Ajoy Kumar.

Dr Kumar unveiled the official website for Pragaman for online application for tickets in the 2024 general election for Lok Sabha and State Assembly Election.
The AICC launched for the first time the Pragaman APP in odisha for transparent ticket distribution to the aspiring Congress candidates, Kumar told reporters here on Sunday.
Any congress worker or leader can apply if he or she feels she or he has the potential to win the election. Now onwards only the honest and dedicated Congress worker will get the chance to get a ticket without any references and family lineage, Kumar said.
Pointing out towards the bonhomie between the ruling party and the principal Opposition, Kumar charged that the focus of BJD and BJP is now on seat sharing.
“Their friendly relationship is now crystal clear after Modi’s visit to Sambalpur yesterday. He did not utter a single word against BJD’s misrule and maladministration in Odisha,” Kumar added.
“Congress is the first and only party which gives the opportunity to every Congress worker to be an MLA or MP, if he has the desire to serve the people. Our leader Rahul Gandhi desires that a real Congress leader with a pool of talent should come forward and apply for tickets,” senior leader Prasad Harichandan said.
