The Election Commission is soon expected to announce election dates for the Bihar Assembly elections. With the upcoming announcement, the political atmosphere in the state has heated up. The Congress Party is poised to unleash its full might in these elections. On Friday, Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra held a rally in Motihari, Bihar.
While addressing the rally in Motihari, Priyanka declared her older brother, Rahul Gandhi, as the 'true patriot', stating that he embarked on a 4000-kilometer journey on foot to listen to the people's voices and understand their issues.
Priyanka Gandhi launched a blistering attack on the NDA government. She stated, 'BJP's sole objective is to win elections and remain in power. For this, BJP raises issues of caste and religion during elections and instills the fear of infiltration. Now, since old tactics are not yielding results, they have resorted to vote-rigging.'
Praise for Rahul Gandhi
Priyanka Gandhi mentioned, 'I am not saying this because he is my brother. But Rahul Gandhi is a true patriot. Only a real patriot can walk 4000 kilometers to listen to the people of the country and comprehend their troubles.'
