Rajasthan Congress chief Sachin Pilot said on Tuesday his party will contest all 25 Lok Sabha seats in the state in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections and will not enter into any alliance.
“Congress had earlier also contested on all 25 Lok Sabha seats and will continue to do so. The coming elections are important and the Congress is not fighting to form government but against the forces that have weakened constitutional institutions,” he said.
Regarding candidate selection, Pilot said the selection of candidate would be done on the basis of feedback of party workers, hard work and winnability. “The screening committee meeting [for candidate selection] will be held on March 8...,” he added.
Hitting out at the BJP, he said, “I believe BJP in the state has no leadership. Be it their Leader of Opposition or state president, they aren’t very active. I am confident that Congress will get good results in the elections.”
BJP spokesperson Mukesh Pareek said the state party leadership and organisation are strong from booth to state level. The party will raise people issues and provide relief.
