Rahul Gandhi the Congress chief has started Apni Baat Rahul Ke saath. The Congress leaders have started gathering some youth from across districts and have started having interaction with him. It is like keeping in touch with the masses and getting the message spread across the media and especially the social media.After winning the three states Rahul Gandhi has become more active and the Congress party has come to the stage of contesting the election all along from UP. He said that the Congress was ready to do a front foot batting for the coming elections. He also took sister Priyanka Gandhi specifically for UP and has given a room by his side at the party office.
On the other hand Modi the Prime Minister is talking to the people via his Mann Ki baat on radio and sending his message to the masses. Modi is also interacting with the cross section of the society from time to time and also using the stage to attack Rahul Gandhi and talking about the corrupt practices of the Congress party.
While Rahul Gandhi is yet to gain the ground, Modi is firm in sending across the message. Rahul on his part is maturing and is better when compared to the earlier times. Modi, on the other hand, has lost some popularity after losing the three states and that will definitely impact on the coming elections in 2019.
The BJP teams are burning the midnight oil to chalk out schemes to woo the masses in general for the sake of votes. The increase in IT limit, the EBC quota are the things which would get votes for Modi in the coming elections. UP will hold the key for any party that is poised to come to power.
