"The Bulgarian Socialist Party will work for becoming the first political power in the country and already has a comprehensive alternative plan for Bulgaria's governance", said the party leader Kornelia Ninova on the 50th jubilee congress of the party.

A total of 976 delegates at the 50th anniversary congress of the Bulgarian Socialist Party gathered today to elect a new National Council after the convincing victory of leader Kornelia Ninova. In her report, she said that the direct election of the party's chairerson had shown that the organization was not divided or disintegrated, and that Boyko Borissov's government was harmful to the state. 

Despite the leader's desire to demonstrate unity, opposition voices were heard in the hall. 
The program of the jubilee congress also includes reports on the work of the National Council and the MPs, the MEPs and the All-Party Control Commission.
 The forum is attended by over 500 guests - diplomats, mayors, intellectuals and others.
