Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has reportedly told party workers from Uttar Pradesh’s Bundelkhand region that they should not expect a “miracle” from her and the party’s performance depends on its booth-level organisation.
The Congress is contesting 80 Lok Sabha seats in the state alone after they were not included in the Samajwadi Party – BSP Grand alliance for the Lok Sabha polls of 2019.
The AICC General Secretary Uttar Pradesh East warned the party workers that anyone found indulging in anti-party activities will be shown the door, a leader who attended the meeting said in a report by news agency PTI.
During the meeting, held at the Congress’ war room at 15 Gurudwara Rakabganj Road, Priyanka Gandhi reviewed the booth-level organisation of the party in the region — under which 19 Assembly and four Lok Sabha seats fall.
The four parliamentary segments in Bundelkhand are — Jhansi-Lalitpur, Jaluan, Banda and Hamirpur.
She asked the Congress workers to strengthen the booth-level organisation of the party.
“I cannot do a miracle from above, the workers need to strengthen the party at the booth level and I need your support for strengthening the party in the state,” the leader quoted Priyanka Gandhi as saying during the meeting.
