Cong to repeat victorious performance in Rajasthan; unanimity on LS candidates: Pilot
There is "complete unanimity" among all senior Congress leaders in Rajasthan on the names of the candidates to be fielded in almost all of the 25 Lok Sabha seats, Deputy Chief Minister Sachin Pilot said Sunday, asserting that his party will accomplish its "mission 25" in the state.
The Rajasthan Congress chief also asserted that the Lok Sabha polls will be fought on bread and butter issues and not on emotional matters that the BJP wants to take the narrative to.
The BJP-led government is trying to shift the narrative away from issues of economic non-performance and job creation, he told PTI in an interview.
The government has made deliberate attempts to make institutions hollow and systematically dismantle them over the last five years, Pilot alleged, citing the examples of institutions such as the Enforcement Directorate, the Central Bureau of Investigation, and the Reserve Bank of India.
