We have tried that our candidate should be a struggling candidate and a candidate who initiates new politics in the entire state.
Priyanka said that our Unnao candidate is the mother of the victim of Unnao's Makhi incident. We have given them a chance to continue their struggle. The power in which his daughter was tortured. His family was ruined, now he should get power there. We have also given a ticket to Ramraj Gond, one of the victims of the Sonbhadra massacre. Similarly, the Asha sisters did a lot of work in Corona, but they were beaten up. We have also given a ticket to one of them, Poonam Pandey. Sadaf Jafar had struggled a lot during CAA-NRC. The government harassed him by getting his photo printed on the poster. My message is that if you are tortured then fight for your rights. Congress is with such women. We have tried that our candidate should be a struggling candidate and a candidate who initiates new politics in the entire state.
Priyanka Gandhi Vadra said that our list of candidates also has a new message. Along with 40 percent women, we have also nominated 40 percent youth. We hope that through them we will do a new kind of politics. In the tickets given to women, there are some journalists and one or two actresses. The list of social servicewomen also includes those women who have struggled and were subjected to atrocities.
