Strength of poor defeated power of crony capitalists: Rahul Gandhi

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday hailed the party’s victory in the Karnataka assembly polls and said that the people of the state defeated the politics of hate. The Congress crossed the halfway mark in the trends and is well set to form the government in the state.

Addressing reporters at the Congress headquarters here in the national capital, Rahul Gandhi said that the Congress stood in support of the poor. “The poor defeated crony capitalists in Karnataka. What I really liked about this election is that we did not fight the battle with hatred. We fought the elections with love,” he said.

“I want to thank all the party leaders and workers in Karnataka. Karnataka mein Nafrat ki bazaar band hui hai, Mohabbat ki dukaane khuli hai. We fought on behalf of the poor. We did not fight this battle using hatred and the wrong words. This will happen in every state,” Rahul Gandhi told the mediapersons here.

The Congress successfully wresting power in Karnataka after Himachal Pradesh will be a morale booster for the party in reviving its electoral fortunes and strengthening its credentials as the main opposition player against the BJP in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
