New Delhi: The Congress on Tuesday tweeted a video showing party general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra distributing campaign materials to people wearing saffron scarves in Uttar Prdaesh to take a swipe at the ruling BJP.

In the video, Priyanka Gandhi can be seen distributing wristbands, posters and pamphlets to the people jostling outside her car to receive the campaign material. 

"Such pictures are rare in politics. People returning from BJP rally asked Priyanka Gandhi ji for manifesto and publicity material of 'Ladki hoon, lade sakti hoon' and took selfies together. This video is enough to clarify the atmosphere of UP," the video was captioned.

राजनीति में ऐसी तस्वीरें दुर्लभ हैं-

भाजपा की रैली से लौट रहे लोगों ने @priyankagandhi जी से घोषणा पत्र और 'लड़की हूं, लड़ सकती हूं' की प्रचार सामग्री मांगी और साथ में सेल्फी ली।

Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has said that she was the face of the party in Uttar Pradesh. Last month, Priyanka Gandhi hinted towards being the Congress' chief ministerial candidate from Uttar Pradesh. “You can see my face everywhere, can’t you,” she had responded when asked about the CM face in the state.

Congress is contesting the Uttar Pradesh Assembly this time with a strong women-centric “Ladki hun lad sakti hun” (I am a girl and I can fight) campaign. Under the initiative, many women candidates have been given party’s ticket to contest the election. Pankhuri Pathak from Noida, Sadaf Jafar from Lucknow Central and Asha Singh from Unnao are some of the prominent candidates. 

Three phases of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections have already taken place and four more phases are to be completed. Votes will be counted on March 10.
