"Our 21st state conference has ended last evening. We have adopted a three pronged approach - to reach out to people, paying heed to their views and exhibiting good and gentle behaviour," he told reporters.
Party Secretary Prakash Karat and Tripura Chief Minister Manik Sarkar, a Politburo member, both appealed to the 575 delegates of the conference to get closer to the common people.
An 80-member state committee was formed in the conference and Dhar, also a Central Committee member, was re-elected as state party secretary for the consecutive third term.
