Congress, one of the largest political parties of the country, which is facing exile of power in Uttar Pradesh for nearly three decades, is not liking the new color. Congress's reins in Uttar Pradesh are now in the hands of the party's national general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra. Priyanka Gandhi Vadra's campaign to contest 403 seats in Uttar Pradesh without any party alliance has started getting a setback. Here, those who have been declared candidates by the party, the same people are leaving the party and joining other parties. Although the old Congress and MLAs started leaving the party after Priyanka Gandhi became the in-charge of the state, for the elections, three candidates of the party leaving the party is going to make a big difference.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, the national general secretary of the All India Congress Committee and in charge of Uttar Pradesh, has tried to bring the party in a new color in the Uttar Pradesh assembly elections. In this sequence, he has also reserved 40 percent of the 403 seats for women. Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who has more faith in the youth, has been shocked by her. In the election campaign, veteran Congress leaders are breaking the trust of Priyanka Gandhi and joining other parties.
Even before the announcement of elections in Uttar Pradesh, many MLAs and members of the Legislative Council left the Congress and joined the BJP and the Samajwadi Party. After the announcement of the election date, their number started increasing. The biggest setback to Congress was when three of their declared candidates switched over to another party. Now the Uttar Pradesh election road is becoming more difficult for Priyanka Gandhi.
