The new committee will be formed within two weeks in terms of the party's constitution by appointing the rural level organisers. The last meeting of this committee was held at the auditorium of the Ports Development and Shipping Ministry on Sunday night under the auspices of the leader of SLMC, Minister Rauff Hakeem, Mr. Rasheed also said.
