Before the assembly elections in UP, all the political parties have started making strategies. Meanwhile, Priyanka Gandhi is holding a press conference in Lucknow today. Priyanka Gandhi has announced in her press conference that the party will give tickets to 40 percent women in the upcoming elections.
Priyanka Gandhi said that Congress has taken this decision for the daughter of Hathras. This decision has been taken by the party for the daughter of Unnao and for the girls living in the Dalit Basti in Lucknow. On the question of giving tickets to the wife and daughter of politicians, Priyanka said that those who are good candidates will get them.
Priyanka Gandhi further said that I understand the problem of women. If the country has to be taken towards development, then caste and religion will have to come out. Priyanka said that women will have to come forward, Congress will give tickets.
Earlier, Congress campaign committee president PL Punia said that Congress rarely announces the name of the chief ministerial candidate, and not announcing it yet will not affect the party's prospects because he has a personality like Priyanka Gandhi to take charge of the campaign against the Bharatiya Janata Party.
PL Punia said in an interview that Priyanka Gandhi is the face of the party in UP and all of us will fight the elections under her leadership. Punia also claimed that there is a direct contest between the Congress and the BJP in the Uttar Pradesh elections as both the Samajwadi Party and the Bahujan Samaj Party have lagged behind and are no longer in the contest.
Let us tell you that this time the Congress has decided not to form an alliance with any party. The party has invited applications from potential candidates from all the seats in the past. It is being told that soon Congress can release the first list of candidates.
