TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Setting a target of bagging at least 20 seats out of a total 25 from the Northeast, Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday asserted that his party will win the upcoming Lok Sabha polls and nobody can stop it.
Addressing party’s district and block unit chiefs from all Northeastern states here, Gandhi said the Congress will fight the polls focussing on three to four major issues, including job crisis, farm distress and corruption.”In 2019 elections, Congress party is going to win. It is a reality and no one can stop that,” he told the gathering.
“I am expecting 20 plus seats in Northeast from Congress party, nothing less than that. But I think you should try to win 22,” he added. The Congress had won eight seats in the Northeast in 2014. It got three in Assam, two in Manipur, one each in Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya and Mizoram.
