There is a lot of craze among women about Priyanka Gandhi. Therefore, political leaders believe that Congress will try to woo women voters through Priyanka Gandhi’s public meeting. Apart from this, the party will also try to woo SC-ST and minority voters. Tonk also has a sizeable population of minority voters. CM Ashok Gehlot and Sachin Pilot took stock of the preparations for Priyanka Gandhi’s public meeting.

Earlier on Saturday, Congress leader Sachin Pilot exuded confidence that the party will form government again in the state. “Rahul Gandhi had recently held a meeting in Rajasthan. Priyanka Gandhi is coming tomorrow and other leaders will also come, we are working together and will form government again (in the state),” he told reporters in Niwai.

Pilot further the BJP tries to divert people’s attention in the name of religion, but the Congress is fully prepared. Attacking the BJP government at the Centre, he said, “The public will assess the BJP’s work on the ground in nine years. What is the condition of inflation? What is the condition of unemployment? The farmers are worried, the youth are worried about their future elections are fought on all these issues.”

According to report, quoting sources, poll-bound Rajasthan is scheduled to go to the polls later this year with the BJP and the incumbent Congress locked in a straight fight. In 2018 the Congress won 99 seats while the BJP won 73 seats in the 200-member house. The Congress led by Ashok Gehlot formed the government with the support of Independents and the BSP.
