Congress leader and former member of Dehradun district Panchayat has said that the results of the recently held Assembly bypolls in three constituencies of Sate will mark the revival of the Congress in the nation.
Addressing the media at his residence on Thursday a day ahead of the counting of votes polled in the bypolls, Singh said that though the Congress had not performed well in the recent lok Sabha polls, the outcome of the Assembly bypolls held in Doiwala, Someshwar and Dharchula constituencies would herald the revival of the Congress in India. He expressed confidence that the party would win all the three seats and spark of a new beginning for the party in the nation.
Citing reports received by the party from the three assembly constituencies, Singh said that the Congress would win from all the seats by a comfortable margin as the people of Uttarakhand had understood that the NDA Govt at the Centre headed by Narendra Modi would not be able to ensure the welfare of people. Stating that people had elected BJP MPs from all the five lok Sabha seats in Uttarakhand, the Congress leader said that the people of the State were now feeling disillusioned.
"As the Modi Govt has now been exposed, the voters are in no mood to support the BJP which makes me sure of Congress winning the bypolls from all the three Assembly constituencies," he said, adding that the Assembly bypolls in Uttarakhand was not a State-centric event as its repercussions would be felt across the nation.
