Congress launches public relations drive in BJP-ruled Uttarakhand ahead of Lok Sabha elections

The Congress party has recently launched a proactive public relations drive in Uttarakhand, which is under BJP rule in preparation for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. With a particular focus on the Tehri constituency, where the Congress candidate Jot Singh Gunsola is campaigning along with senior Congress leader Navprabhat, they are addressing various issues such as the incumbent BJP member's purported inactivity and the BJP's emphasis on emotive issues like the Uniform Civil Code and Citizenship Amendment Act.

Navprabhat, a former state minister, criticized the BJP, highlighting the issue of corruption via electoral bonds as a major concern before the electorate. He emphasized the Congress's commitment to supporting the marginalized sections of society like the poor, farmers, and women, and their pledge to prioritize development. Gunsola echoed these sentiments, asserting that their campaign is centered around pressing matters like unemployment and women's safety, resonating with voters during their outreach efforts in Uttarakhand. The Congress aims to contest the upcoming seven-phased Lok Sabha elections in Uttarakhand on a positive note, promising to address crucial societal issues and stand against corruption.
