Congress Releases First List Of Candidates, Fields Unnao Victim's Mother

Rahul Gandhi, the Congress leader, said on Thursday that his party is bringing a huge change to the country, beginning in Uttar Pradesh, where it has handed poll tickets to people who have been wronged by the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). He stated that Congress believes in forming partnerships with citizens and does not engage in "service theatre." The mother of the Unnao rape victim, a woman who spoke out against the exploitation of Asha workers under the BJP's control, and a woman who fought for years against crimes against the Nishad community in the state have all been handed poll tickets by the party, according to the Congress president.
