Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra is scheduled to hold a virtual meet with senior party leaders from Uttar Pradesh on Monday to discuss party’s preparations ahead of the next assembly polls which will be held in Feb/March. The meeting will take place at 10 am.
The call for virtual meet comes after Priyanka Gandhi slammed the Uttar Pradesh government over incidents of violence during filing nominations for block president polls.
Accusing the Yogi government of preventing a woman from filing nominations and misbehaving with her, she shared a clip on her Twitter account wherein people could be seen misbehaving with the said woman.
“A few years ago a rape victim raised her voice against a BJP MLA, an attempt was made to kill her along with her entire family. Today BJP crossed all limits to stop the nomination of a woman. Same government. Same behaviour,” Priyanka Gandhi said in a tweet.
Priyanka Gandhi is currently working from her camp in Lucknow. She had earlier stated to her party members that continuous efforts are required to establish party’s future, emphasising all the party members are welcomed to give in their inputs to strengthen the party.
Meanwhile, Priyanka Gandhi had recently held a meeting with Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel who is likely to play a key role in Congress organisation in the upcoming assembly polls.
