Congress confident of INDIA bloc getting 'clear and decisive' mandate

The Congress on Friday said that its positive campaign, the NYAY guarantees, and prioritising the protection of the Constitution are the reasons why the INDIA bloc is going to get a “clear and decisive” mandate on June 4.

Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh, party’s media and publicity department head Pawan Khera and AICC social media department head Supriya Shrinate released a compilation of 272 questions the party asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the last 72 days titled ‘72 Days, 272 Questions, 0 Jawab’ ‘Bhaag Modi Bhaag’.

Addressing a press conference along with Khera and Shrinate, Ramesh said the Congress’ campaign was positive and the result of the Rahul Gandhi-led Bharat Jodo Nyaya Yatra.

He recalled that on January 23 this year in Guwahati, Rahul Gandhi for the first time announced the five nyays - Yuva Nyay, Nari Nyay, Kisaan Nyay, Shramik Nyay and Hissedaari Nyay.

In Ranchi on February 5, Gandhi talked about ‘hissedari nyay’ and the party’s guarantees under it, Ramesh said.

On February 23 in Ambikapur, Gandhi and Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge announced the guarantees under ‘kisaan nyay’.

He pointed out on March 7 in Banswara, Kharge and Gandhi released the ‘yuva nyay’ guarantees.

On March 13 in Dhule, Gandhi announced ‘naari nyay’, while Kharge announced the ‘shramik nyay’ guarantee in Bengaluru, he said.
