2024 LS elections are for a new change: Sachin Pilot

During a roadshow, Congress leader Sachin Pilot expressed optimism in the opposition coalition, INDIA bloc, forming a government at the Centre. He also stated that the Congress party aims to secure 20 seats in Kerala during the Lok Sabha elections. Additionally, Sachin Pilot queried the BJP government about their accomplishments over the past decade.

“The BJP government has not done any work in the last 10 years. The 2024 Lok Sabha elections are for a new change. The UDF has promised to work for the elderly, farmers and young people amd women. The BJP has used the CBI and ED against Rahul Gandhi. In the last 10 years, the BJP has not done anything for the middle class and the poor. You can see the language of the BJP leaders and see what kind of agenda they are setting. Rahul Gandhi always raises the issues of Wayanad and talks about his constituency, this time also people will vote for Rahul Gandhi and make Congress win 20 seats in Kerala,” Pilot told ANI.

He emphasized that the election agenda should prioritize development, progress, and prosperity, highlighting what he perceives as a “sense of arrogance” within the NDA government.

“This is a national election. The agenda for the election should be development, progress, and prosperity. The 10 years of the NDA government, have to give answers for why we have record unemployment in this country today. The sense of arrogance in the government is now clearly visible. The statements made by the top leaders of the BJP show that they are on a back foot in the first round of voting. The feedback we’ve got is that it INDIA bloc is far ahead of the NDA. In Kerala, there are 20 seats that go to polls. Last time we got 19 seats. I am absolutely confident that we will get 20 out of 20 seats and Rahul Gandhi will win by a bigger margin than he won last time,” he said.

Pilot elaborated that the Congress manifesto is dedicated to the nation’s prosperity, asserting that recent statements from BJP leaders indicate their apprehension and nervousness regarding the election outcome.

“I don’t know why the Prime Minister is saying these things. There is no reason. We take everybody along. This country belongs to all of us. But the statements given by the BJP leaders show that they are rattled and they are quite nervous about the results…UDF will win 20 on 20 seats (in Kerala),” he said.

He additionally asserted that the Congress and the INDIA bloc are poised to perform strongly in the Lok Sabha elections, confidently stating that the INDIA bloc will assume power on June 4.

“The LDF government is working in the state but is not successful in delivering development. Their government is facing serious corruption charges. There is violence in the state and violence in politics as well. The people of Kerala will show the LDF the real mirror. It is also clear to the people what the agenda of the BJP is and the agenda of Congress is absolutely clear. We will work for women, farmers, the elderly, and young people. The Congress and the INDIA bloc will perform well. The Congress manifesto aims to bring prosperity to India. It is clear from the statements given by BJP leaders that they are nervous about the election results.

In response to the electoral bonds controversy, Sachin Pilot urged the BJP government to reveal the names of the recipients.

“The Supreme Court has called the electoral bond illegal. If they want transparency, then why is the BJP not disclosing the recipient’s name? Even after the Supreme Court’s intervention, the name has been kept hidden. Donations have been received, which is a huge corruption, and the BJP will have to answer,” he said.

All 20 Lok Sabha constituencies in Kerala are scheduled to vote in a single phase on April 26, with counting set for June 4.
