The Prime Minister’s gatherings often start the party’s election campaign because he is known for being able to draw huge crowds. Party sources say the focus will be on infrastructure, welfare benefits, and giving young people more power. These are all issues that directly affect voters.
What Rahul Gandhi Is Doing Instead
Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the Congress party, has stepped up his efforts to reach out to the public by having more rallies and public meetings.
