Congress Ranks Close In as Ajay Maken Calls for United Front to “Defend Democracy” Ahead of Jaipur Rally

Maken emphasised that the upcoming mobilisation was not merely a show of strength but a demonstration of the party’s commitment to safeguarding democratic institutions and amplifying the public’s voice. According to him, every Congress worker in the state was ready to participate with full determination, viewing the rally as a critical moment to reaffirm the party’s stand on electoral integrity and broader democratic rights.

Framing the issue as one that goes beyond partisan politics, Maken said the movement was rooted in the need to protect the principles that uphold India’s democratic framework. He reiterated that the Congress, under Rahul Gandhi’s leadership in the opposition, intended to ensure that allegations of electoral malpractice received strong public attention and political pushback.

As preparations continued in Jaipur, party leaders described the rally as part of an extended campaign to channel growing concerns among supporters and to reinforce the Congress narrative on defending institutional fairness. The event is expected to draw significant participation, reflecting both organisational resolve and the party’s intent to position the issue at the centre of its political messaging.
