We want to contest LS polls under Rahul Gandhi: Manish Tewari

He said that comments of Rahul Gandhi were appropriate in this context as the country did not move on narrow-mindedness but on an inclusive, wider thought.

Meanwhile, Union Minister Krishna Tirath dismissed a poll survey which predicted a Congress rout in the Lok Sabha polls in Delhi, saying the voters would not commit the same “mistake” they made in voting for AAP in the Assembly elections.

“We have faith in the voters and they have trust in Congress. The mistake they committed once...people are realising that AAP has failed to implement its promises and they will be unable to fulfill them,” she told reporters on the sidelines of a programme here.

Asserting that Congress will perform well in the Lok Sabha polls under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi, she said her party will carry out all the reforms in the larger interest of the country.
