'Will only speak the truth': Priyanka Gandhi lashes out at Congress workers over election drubbing

Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, on a visit to her mother Sonia Gandhi’s constituency Raebareli, made no bones about her disappointment with Congress workers, reprimanding them for not giving their best to ensure the party’s victory in the Lok Sabha elections.

A visibly upset Gandhi said since she was asked to make a speech, she would only speak the truth.

The Congress leader campaigned aggressively in favour of



party leaders in UP but the party lost on all seats, except Raebareli.

The biggest shocker for the Congress was losing the family bastion of Amethi — represented by party chief Rahul Gandhi — to BJP’s Smriti Irani.

Earlier, Sonia Gandhi attacked the BJP, accusing the ruling party of "crossing limits of dignity" to retain power and deliver a second successive term in office for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
