Priyanka Gandhi to lead Congress campaign in UP polls? To address 150 rallies!

Meerut: A spokesperson of the Congress Party has reportedly said that Priyanka Gandhi would address a whopping 150 rallies covering the length and breadth of Uttar Pradesh ahead of the state assembly elections in 2017.

Citing a spokesperson of the Uttar Pradesh Congress Committee (UPCC), TOI said that the Gandhi scion will canvass across the state and the campaign would be "nothing like anyone has seen".

"The workers are very enthusiastic about the prospect of Priyanka Gandhi leading the charge. The programme is not final yet but tentatively, it is being said that she will play a leading role in the party's campaign in Uttar Pradesh.

“She will address over 150 rallies across the length and breadth of the state. Traditionally, she has only campaigned in Amethi and Rae Bareli. This time, she will move beyond those two Lok Sabha constituencies," TOI quoted Satya Dev Tripathi, chairman of the UPCC communications department, as saying.

"It will be nothing like anything anyone has seen. The Congress will do well in this election. The programme is being finalised at the top level. The final details will be sketched out by the Congress president," he added.
