Lok Sabha Elections 2024: Amid the Lok Sabha Elections 2024, the Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge and Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav held a joint press conference of the I.N.D.I.A bloc in Uttar Pradesh’s Lucknow today (May 15).
Kharge assured that I.N.D.I.A bloc will form the government in India on June 4 (Tuesday).
Mallikarjun Kharge said, “In four phases of elections that have been completed, I.N.D.I.A bloc is in a strong position and people have decided to let go of PM Modi. On June 4, the INDIA alliance will form the government. This election is an important one to save the democracy and the constitution.”
“INDIA alliance is in a strong position after four phases of polls, will form new govt on June 4,” Kharge added while addressing a presser in Lucknow.
Kharge said, “We all should work together to protect the future, democracy, and the constitution of the country otherwise we will become slaves again. If there won’t be a democracy but autocracy and dictatorship, how will you elect someone with your ideology? Wherever any big leader of the BJP is contesting, opposition party leaders are being stopped from filing nominations. I have seen in Hyderabad that one woman candidate of BJP was checking women’s identities by removing the burqa. Is this how free and fair elections are conducted.?”
INDIA bloc to fulfill guarantees
“We will fulfil all the guarantees promised to you. There has been talks on 5 kg ration. Food Security Act was brought by us. I promise that if INDIA alliance government will come to power, we will give 10 kg ration. We have implemented guarantees in Karnataka, Telangana and we will do it when we will come to power,” said Mallikarjun Kharge.
