At party workers' camp, LoP blames 'biased umpire' EC for poll routs

- DILIP SINGH KSHATRIYA @ Ahmedabad

WITH Gujarat in its crosshairs for the 2027 Assembly elections, the Congress on Saturday launched an aggressive organisational rejig led by Rahul Gandhi. At a high-stakes training camp in Anand, he took sharp digs at the Election Commission (EC), vowed to dethrone the BJP in its home turf, and energised grassroots leaders under the 'Sangathan Sujan Abhiyan'.

With Mission 2027 in full swing, the Congress has kicked off a decisive campaign from Gujarat—the BJP's strongest bastion. A three-day training camp for newly appointed District Congress Committee (DCC) presidents is underway at a resort near Anand, aimed at crafting a clear roadmap for the upcoming elections.
