Rahul Gandhi Rallies Congress for 2027 Uttar Pradesh Elections amidst Dalit Concerns

Rahul Gandhi, during his visit to Rae Bareli, urged Congress workers to strengthen the party for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh elections. He addressed issues affecting the Dalit community, met with party members, and highlighted concerns in the railway sector. His visit faced opposition from some groups over alleged comments against Mayawati.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has called on party workers to bolster organisational strength as they prepare for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh assembly elections. Meeting with a delegation from the Dalit community, Gandhi discussed ongoing challenges, including the lack of protective gear for sanitation workers.

During his Rae Bareli visit, Gandhi paid homage to historical figures and criticised the government on unemployment issues. He also toured the Modern Rail Coach Factory, calling for improved railway safety and comfort for passengers. The factory's focus remains on general and sleeper coach production.

However, Gandhi's visit was marred by tension, with posters accusing him of double standards regarding Dalit leader Mayawati. Local groups demanded an apology for what they claimed were derogatory remarks made by a Congress leader against her.
