Congress Leaders Highlight Governance Issues and Unity Ahead of Uttarakhand and Rajasthan ElectionsPreviousNext

Ahead of the 2027 Uttarakhand Assembly elections, Congress leaders including Ganesh Godiyal and Harish Rawat emphasize unemployment, corruption, and governance failures under the BJP government as key campaign issues. Godiyal accuses the BJP of protecting leaders linked to the Ankita Bhandari case, while Rawat denies internal party rifts and calls for united opposition. In Rajasthan, Congress figures Sachin Pilot and Ashok Gehlot stress party unity to challenge the BJP in the 2028 polls, dismissing reports of personal animosity and factionalism.
