Uttar Pradesh Congress president Nirmal Khatri today said murmurs of dissent were expected in the organisation following massive reshuffle in state's city and district units.
"Some voices of dissent are likely as nearly 90 per cent presidents of district and city units were changed in the latest reshuffle.
"But, I will not shy away from talking to dissenters and explain them everything," Khatri said in a chat with reporters here.
Referring to the protest by supporters of a district unit head who was changed, the UPCC chief said he talked to them and they went back satisfied.
Khatri said after the state assembly election, the High Command had said effective steps should be taken for strengthening the organisation.
The state Congress president held a meeting with representatives of Youth Congress, Seva Dal, Mahila Congress, NSUI and INTUC.
At the meeting leaders of these frontal organisations complained they were not getting due respect and importance in the organisation, party sources said.
