Srinagar, Aug 22: Congress leader and the Leader of Opposition (LoP) in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi Thursday said that there will be a coalition in J&K, but that, he said won’t be at the cost of Congress workers’ and leaders’ interest.
Addressing the Congress worker’s meet in Srinagar, Rahul said, “all you (workers) should remain assured that there will be no compromise on the interests and respect of party workers and leaders,” reports said.
“You can’t see PM Modi opening his chest any more. Our ideology and strength paved the way for us. We didn’t resort to violence or unparliamentary language but succeeded in conveying a message to PM Modi that he is not what he feels,” he said.
Speaking on the occasion, AICC chief Malikarjun Kharge said that if Congress wins polls from J&K, the party would be able to conquer entire India.
“People of J&K must repose trust in Congress so that we can pull you out of the mess and despair,” he said and urged people to vote for the party in large numbers in the upcoming Assembly elections commencing September 18. He said that Congress expects at least 40 to 45 seats in the upcoming polls.
“As per a survey, it has come to fore that Rahul is the most popular leader in J&K.”
He said that Congress will fight for the restoration of rights of people of J&K. “We will fight for your land, forests and rights snatched,” he said.
