Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge expressed strong confidence in winning the upcoming assembly elections, stating, "I am fully confident that we will emerge victorious in the assembly elections." He credited the success to the collective efforts of the party and the dedication of Congress workers.
Drawing attention to unfulfilled promises, Kharge questioned the fate of the ₹15 lakh promise and the commitment to create jobs for two crore people. He emphasised the need for truthfulness in politics, stating that continuous deception of the public eventually loses its credibility.
Kharge criticised the BJP, stating that people are dissatisfied with the party, and the public is becoming increasingly aware of the falsehoods propagated by the ruling party. He concluded by asserting that the electorate is discerning and will not be swayed by repeated untruths. The Congress leader urged the people to recognize the reality behind political claims, emphasizing the importance of trust in the electoral process.
Polling to take place on November 25
Earlier, the Election Commission of India (EC) announced that Rajasthan will go to polls on November 25 while the counting of votes will take place on December 3. Meanwhile, the state will witness polling in a single phase. Rajasthan has 200 total seats. In Rajasthan – which will see a direct fight between the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on November 25 – anti-incumbency is an important factor. Since 1993, when the BJP came to power after a stint of President's Rule, the state has alternated between the Congress and the BJP.
