Congress' poor performance in 2019 Lok Sabha polls
It was a year of crisis for the Congress with Rahul Gandhi failing in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls even despite his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra formally joining the party to boost the Congress. While the Congress’ vote share in the 2014 parliamentary elections was 19.52%, which earned it 44 seats, the party polled only 19.70% votes in 2019, winning just 52 seats.
The Congress, which was founded in 1885, on Saturday posted a tweet highlighting “135 years of unity, justice, equality, ahimsa and freedom”.
