Ahead of the Himachal Pradesh Assembly polls, Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi today formed a committee headed by veteran party leader Vidya Stokes to ensure better coordination among various leaders.
The Committee has all top leaders from the state as its members, including chief minister Virbhadra Singh.
Former Union Minister and senior Congress leader Anand Sharma and Pradesh Congress President Sukhwinder Singh Sukhu are also members of the panel.

The panel has been formed to ensure proper coordination among leaders and to minimise dissensions within the party.
