The Congress party has announced a nationwide campaign against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government over issues such as unemployment, inflation, and recurring examination paper leaks.
The decision was taken at a meeting of Pradesh Congress Committee presidents, AICC general secretaries, and state in-charges chaired by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge and attended by Leader of the Opposition Rahul Gandhi and party general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra.
The agitation is likely to begin by the end of June and continue for two to three months, party leaders said.
Rahul Gandhi asked the leaders to have “Agitational energy”!
According to two leaders present at the meeting, Rahul Gandhi warned that an “economic tsunami” was headed towards India and blamed the Modi government’s policies for the impending crisis.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra stressed the need for a well-planned and focused campaign, urging party leaders to ensure effective monitoring and coordination at all organisational levels.
The party has also discussed the rejection of Congress leader Meenakshi Natarajan’s Rajya Sabha nomination and would challenge the matter both politically and legally.
