BJP Leader Says Congress Has No Standing in Uttar Pradesh

BJP Leader Says Congress Has No Standing in Uttar Pradesh

A leader from one of India's big political parties said something about another party.

He said the Congress party is not very strong on its own in the state of Uttar Pradesh.

He said Congress could win only a few seats if it teams up with the Samajwadi Party.

He compared it to riding on someone else's shoulders.

This matters because there will be a big state election in Uttar Pradesh in 2027.

The two parties are thinking about teaming up again.

A long time ago, the two parties worked together but Congress did not win many seats.

When Congress tried to win alone, it won even fewer seats.

But in 2024, the two parties worked together in the national election and won many seats.

So now people are talking about whether they should work together again.
