Chintan Shivir: Need to revive connect with people, no shortcuts, says Rahul Gandhi
Udaipur (Rajasthan), May 15: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday highlighted the need to connect with people and said that this is not possible through "any shortcut".
Speaking on the concluding day of the three-day Chintan Shivir in Udaipur, Rahul Gandhi said, "We have to revive our connection with people and need to accept that it was broken down. We will strengthen it. This will not happen with any shortcut, it requires hard work." "Sometimes our senior leaders and workers go into depression. It's normal because this is not an easy fight. This fight cannot be fought by a regional party because this is a fight of ideology," he added.
Boosting the morale of the party workers, the Congress leader said, "Senior leaders showed us the direction and there is a lot of clarity where the Congress party has to go in terms of policy, thinking and political position."
"I want to tell all Congress workers and leaders that you don't need to be scared. This country believes in truth. I'm with you for the rest of my life. And I'm going to fight this fight with you," he added.

Lashing out at the Centre, the Congress MP said, "Inflation will rise in near future. Unemployment, inflation and attacks on India's institutions are on the rise. 'Aag lagegi', we have to ensure they don't set the country on fire."
To strengthen connect with people, Congress has decided to take out a nationwide yatra in October.
Rahul Gandhi further pointed out that Congress has always provided a platform for people to deliberate without fear and worry. "Which other political party in this country would allow this type of conversation? Certainly, the BJP and RSS would never allow such a thing. India is a union of states, people of India come together to form the union," said Rahul.
Congress Working Committee meeting was held on Sunday in Udaipur to give final shape to organisational reforms and stand on key issues.
