Lucknow, June 1
Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Wednesday urged party workers not to be disheartened by the assembly poll results in Uttar Pradesh and work with “double energy” until they score a victory.
Speaking at the Congress’ two-day ‘Nav Sankalp Karyashala’ here, Vadra said she will work with party workers with double strength and they have to move ahead in line with the spirit of the ‘Nav Sankalp’ declaration adopted at a party conclave in Udaipur in May.
The Congress was decimated in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly polls, with the party winning only two of the 403 seats. This was the party’s lowest-ever tally in the state. It had won seven seats in the 2017 Uttar Pradesh Assembly polls.
The ‘Nav Sankalp Karyashala’, which began on Wednesday, is the first big Congress event in Uttar Pradesh since its poll drubbing.
“Despite fighting with all its force, the party was defeated. But there is no time to be disheartened… (we must) continue fighting with double energy until we win,” the Congress general secretary told party workers and leaders who came from across the state.
Vadra said she will work with party workers with double strength.
“We have to move ahead in line with the spirit of the declaration passed at Udaipur’s ‘Chintan Shivir’,” she said.
