"Matchless
expressions powered through devout imagination in all its
natural element and style."
In
these three years of publishing, 'Congress Sandesh',
has delivered the highest quality of meaningful editorial
and has ensured the upkeep of near perfect editorial ambience.
Over the years 'Congress Sandesh' has enlightened
Congress workers in the country through its unparalleled
coverage, doing able justice to the issues of paramount
importance. Smt. Sonia Gandhi has very willfully agreed
to provide the right direction and very ably incorporated
the ideologies of 'Congress Sandesh' into the publication,
which has leased new life to it. Time and again 'Congress
Sandesh' has cracked the whip on critical issues presenting
a wholistic view of the entire gamut of activities of national
importance. "Congress Sandesh is the true voice of
Indian National Congress (INC)."

Powerful
Instrument
I
am delighted to learn that the 54th Independence Day edition
of 'Congress Sandesh', will be highlighting the problems
and prospects before the nation.
Congress
Sandesh is only three year old, but it has helped Congress
workers in understanding the various issues before the Party
and the nation and also in appreciating the same from the
Congress perspective, is no small achievement.
The
credit goes to our esteemed Congress President, Smt. Sonia
Gandhi. It was so thoughtful of her to launch this monthly
journal, which has emerged as a powerful mouthpiece of the
Party.
I
am eagerly looking forward to the Independence Day edition
of Congress Sandesh, which, I am sure, while recalling the
supreme sacrifices and visionary role of the Congress leaders
in making India a free and secular country, shall also light
the path shown by our beloved Rajivji for us to achieve
his dreams of a hapy, prosperous and modern secular India
under the dynamic leadership and visionary guidance of Soniaji.
I
wish the editorial board every success in its endeavours
to this end.

A
Vital Link With Cadre
I
am glad to know that the third anniversary of the 'Congress
Sandesh' coincides with the 54th Independence Day of
our country.
It
was at the behest of the President of the Indian National
Congress and our beloved leader, Smt. Sonia Gandhi, that
the journal 'Congress Sandesh' was launched on August
15, 1998. Since then, the journal has been providing useful
information on the policies and programmes of the party
to the people, especially the workers, spread all over the
country. Indian National Congress stands for secularism,
communal harmony and national integration. The journal serves
as a vital link between the Congress leadership and the
party followers.
I
am sure, under the able stewardship of Smt. Soniaji 'Congress
Sandesh' will continue to highlight the Congress ideology
in an effective manner and enthuse party workers to serve
the masses with dedication.
I
wish the third anniversary special number of 'Congress
Sandesh' all success.

54th
Independence Day of our great nation.
The
'Congress Sandesh' which was launched on the 15th

has during the last three years, effectively spread the
message of national integration, democratic principles,
secularism, welfare of the deprived sections of society
and upliftment of the poor, which are values that the Congress
Party has always cherished and stood for. I am sure the
publication will increase its readership and reach more
and more people in the years to come.

Vehicle
for Congress
At
the outset I am very proud to state that the 'Congress
Sandesh' is very informative and interesting. I have
been a Congress worker since childhood. I believe that Congress
alone can develop India in all spheres. It is the only party
rendering actual service to the downtrodden. Because of
this millions SCs and STs look to the party. Spirit of sacrifice
of the Nehru's family should be imbibed by all Congressmen
- old and young - so that the party will always remain the
choice of the masses.
Smt.
Soniaji is an exemplary leader carrying the Congress flag
aloft to keep the nation intact and for the betterment of
the downtrodden. That is why rejuvenated Congress is in
flying colours attracting back the people. 'Congress
Sandesh' is a great vehicle in fulfilling the task of
Soniaji to take the party to the pinnacle and serve the
nation.
I
heartily wish 'Congress Sandesh' all success and
hope it will become part and parcel of the life of the Congress
worker.
