I saw you working hard in the sun and dust, you did not bow down, you did not stop, you showed courage to fight in the toughest of times. You were tortured, false cases were filed against you, you were put in jail, and you were repeatedly put under house arrest but you did not get scared. Many leaders left in fear, but you remained firm.”

“I am proud of you and the conscious people of UP. You gave a strong message to the whole of India to save our Constitution,” she added.

Priyanka Gandhi further said that the old ideals of politics have been re-established in these Lok Sabha polls.

“You have re-established an old ideal in today’s politics – that public issues are paramount, and the price of ignoring them is heavy. Elections are of the public, it is the public who fights and it is the public who wins,” Gandhi said.
