Congress faces fresh test in poll-bound Uttar Pradesh after Punjab setback

The Congress party is grappling with organizational difficulties in Uttar Pradesh as the state heads toward elections, building on recent troubles in Punjab. The party's high command must navigate internal party dynamics and restore credibility in the state where it has struggled to maintain a strong presence.

The challenges in Uttar Pradesh come at a critical time for the national party, which has faced leadership disputes and factional tensions in other states. Congress aims to strengthen its position and rebuild support ahead of the electoral contest.
